Circular Quay Sydney

Circular Quay and Sydney CBD

Our holiday in New South Wales

September 2007

Circular Quay in Sydney is really the hub of much activity in this vibrant city. It is situated in a small bay called Sydney Cove, the site of the first European settlement in Australia.

It is an easy walk from the CBD, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Sydney Opera House, the Rocks area, the Royal Botanic Gardens and the Domain. There is a train station at Circular Quay with trains servicing this busy area every few minutes. There is a constant movement of ferries at the dock below the raised railway station. A large fleet of ferries operates from here to many points around Sydney Harbour. Taking a ferry cruise is an excellent way to see this magnificent harbour.
