Sydney is a fantastic place for families, with many things to do including zoos,  aquariums, beaches, parks, and plenty of open space for kids to burn off that endless energy.  There are interactive museums, whale watching, an indoor skydiving facility, and an amusement park to name but a few.  Or stroll around The Rocks, or use the free play area at Darling Harbour.

There are lots of great family-friendly luxury hotels available too, and as we wandered around the city, we found a few fabulous ones we’d like to suggest to you should you find yourself coming to stay in this amazing city.
