Ferry Ride on Sydney Harbour

What better way to get around Sydney then by ferry. Take a trip to Watson Bay, Cockatoo Island, or spend the day with a ride to Manly.

Starting from Circular Quay in Sydney you get numerous offerings for your ferry adventure. I purchased a $20 day tripper ticket which also included my train travel, but for that price I had unlimited ferry use for the day. If you check out the state transit websites like 131500.info you can find the best ticket for you as well as some great destinations.

Boarding a ferry before lunch gives you the chance to find some great harbour side lunch spots. Though some can be more expensive with views you can still find affordable eats. My choice is to head to Manly early for lunch and an explore.

But if Manly isn't up your alley, then a ferry ride to Watson's Bay and a beer ot two at the Watsons Bay Hotel may be better.

With so many options the humble Sydney Ferry offers a gateway to many other adventures.

Fitzroy Falls

Heading to the Southern Highlands for an adventure, then why not drop by Fitzroy Falls. Access to see the falls is only a few hundred metres from the visitors centre but many more walks etc are available for those seeking some real adventure.

Not far from Bowral and Moss Vale making it a great stopping spot on the way to Kangaroo Valley or other parts of the highlands.

Well worth walking the extra 400 metres to the second lookout, which is where my photo was taken. Gives a much better view of the waterfall.
