Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Sydney

"Southeast of the Opera House, this garden was established in 1816 and features plant life from around the world. Within the gardens are hothouses with palms and ferns, as well as the Calyx, a striking exhibition space featuring a curving glasshouse gallery with a wall of greenery and temporary plant-themed exhibitions. Grab a park map at any main entrance."

"I recommend joining an Aboriginal Heritage Walk to learn about the Cadigal people who were the original owners of this area. (every Wednesday, Friday, Saturday 10am to 11.30am). Alternatively you could join a free guided tour to learn more about the plants at the Gardens."

"No trip to Sydney is complete without a visit to Sydney's highest point. Known as ‘Centrepoint,’ by the locals, from the Observation Deck, you can get 360-degree views of stellar Sydney, from 250 metres above the street level. These shots will shine on your socials; as the last place to catch dusk, you're guaranteed an Insta-worthy sunset."

"If you’re like me and love getting a birds-eye view of places, then the Sydney Tower is a must. It’s Sydney’s tallest building and the 360-degree views from the observation deck are pretty epic. Head up for sunset and watch the city switch over to night."

"Sydney Tower is the tallest structure in Sydney and the second tallest tower in the southern hemisphere. In 2009 it underwent significant renovations including connecting it with the shopping centre below."

"Scratched out of the sand in 1888 in grand Victorian style, Sydney’s biggest park is a rambling 189-hectare expanse full of horse riders, joggers, cyclists and in-line skaters. Grab a park map at any of the entrances or the information centre in the middle. During summer the Moonlight Cinema attracts crowds."

"Renowned for its late-night harbourside parties, this tiki-themed tropical bar is a great place to dance from day to night. “It’s fun and has amazing views. Has good ambience, food is good and you can have a blast,” said @surashree_paul."

"It’s a very versatile dining option, offering dine-in, takeaway and set menus, with deeply affordable prices. This is real Neapolitan cuisine. Chef Alfredo Repole is Neapolitan native, and he infuses his dishes with an authenticity that many of his competitors lack."

"A summer essential for any Sydneysider, Camp Cove Swims’ colourful bikinis have been the go-to for a more sustainable beachside look since 2013. Produced down the coast in Jervis Bay, this brand is not only made locally but is designed to minimise its impact on the planet. Created with longevity front of mind, the lining of Camp Cove togs is made from regenerated nylon from rescued fishing nets that were heading for landfill."

"Escape from the crowds with a day spent at the secluded, picturesque Camp Cove. Nestled in Sydney Harbour’s National Park, near South Head, this hidden gem boasts harbour views and calm waters. This tranquil, relaxed environment makes Camp Cove the ideal spot to swim, snorkel, kayak or even scuba dive."

"Secluded, rarely crowded, and relaxed, Camp Cove is perhaps the most underrated of Sydney’s beaches. But that’s okay, because it simply means you’re likely to have a generous patch of sand all to yourself. Pack your snorkel, as the calm water makes for prime skin diving conditions."

"Out of all of the Sydney beaches, Cronulla is the only beach in the city that can be reached by train, making it the perfect stop for sunny days that are sure to lure everyone from the region down to the beach. It’s famous for its surf, large stretch of sand and family-friendly atmosphere. Use Cronulla as a base for the Cronulla walk, a two-hour trek that weaves you through other nearby beaches, pools, local flora, and viewpoints."

"Avoid the headache of finding a car park with a trip to Cronulla Beach, which is the only beach in Sydney that is accessible by train. Bathe on the sprawling sand or catch a wave in the surf at this vibrant Summer destination. With seaside restaurants, surf-lifesaving events and leafy parks all a stone’s throw away, there is always something to do and see."
