Embark on an exciting exploration at this former convict gaol and shipyard located in the heart of Sydney Harbour. Set up a picnic basket with friends or organise a family barbecue on Cockatoo Island, Sydney’s very own UNESCO World Heritage Site. For a fun day out, join a tour of this historic landmark, chill outdoors on the camping grounds or go for a bite at the waterfront cafes on the island. Travel to this hidden gem via ferry and the journey can be just as momentous as the destination.
