One of Sydney’s most lively destinations at any time of the year, Darling Harbour is a mecca for all things entertainment. This area is home to some of the city’s top tourist attractions, as well as a plethora of shopping and dining opportunities.

Guests staying at Rydges Darling Square can reach Darling Harbour in less than 5 minutes on foot. Head to SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium to meet an incredible array of marine animals, marvel at magnificent ships at the Australian National Maritime Museum and, on Saturday evenings, stop to admire the sights and sounds of Darling Harbour during its weekly fireworks display.

Darling Harbour also offers a huge range of dining experiences, with dozens of trendy bars, restaurants and cafes stacked along the waterfront. Explore the fashion boutiques and souvenir shops at Cockle Bay Wharf and Harbourside Shopping Centre, or enjoy dancing and drinks with a view at one of Darling Harbour’s pulsing nightclubs.
