Partly sunny. Mild.

Sydney is Australia's oldest city, the economic powerhouse of the nation and the country's capital in everything but name. It's blessed with sun-drenched natural attractions, dizzy skyscrapers, delicious and daring restaurants, superb shopping and friendly folk.
Although it's come a long way from its convict beginnings, Sydney still has a rough and ready energy, and offers an invigorating blend of the old and the new, the raw and the refined. While high culture attracts some to the Opera House, gaudy nightlife attracts others to Kings Cross.

You have several options on how to explore the heart of Sydney, which includes: walking, biking, sailing, helicopter rides and the most popular, the hop-on/hop-off bus. Any way you chose, you'll see the greatest views of the harbor, the bridge, and the Opera House; the historic Rocks; and the Central Business District (CBD).

There are also many places beyond the city limits that are worth seeing. The Blue Mountains are absolutely beautiful and a must-see while you're visiting Sydney. Or take a day trip into Sydney's Wine Country, Hunter Valley.

Sydney's multicultural melange, abundant fresh produce and geographic assets have made it a great place to dine, and many great chefs have flocked here to set up signature restaurants. Fine local wines, a vibrant cafe culture, and magnificent harbour views are added extras.
With views over Woolloomooloo Bay to the city skyline diners can sit on the boardwalk or indoors. Manta offers exceptional seafood, a wonderful wine list and a romantic setting. Book ahead for an exceptional harbour marina dining experience.
Tetsuya's has been ranked in the top five best restaurants in the world, and you must come here with a palate that seeks a culinary journey rather than a simple stuffed belly. The degustation menu offers ten courses of amazingly creative morsels of art that will exhilarate your senses.
Some of Sydney's finest food is produced at this sleekest of Neil Perry's restaurants, which has been tingling diners' culinary senses for over 15 years. The award-winning seafood is exceptional, with filtered tanks keeping critters fresh until the very last minute.
