An island in the middle of Sydney Harbour that’s a UNESCO World Heritage site dotted with historical buildings. Catch the ferry from Circular Quay—a journey in itself—to see architecture from five distinct eras. Squat, convict-built lock-ups of Sydney’s beginnings contrast with grand-scale ship-building facilities of a once-thriving industry. Dedicate a good half-day here: there’s also a cafe, a bar, walking tracks, and several ways to interact with the history, including an audio tour and video installations. This isn’t a pretty, Disneyfied experience—it’s quite gritty. And an interesting contrast against the sparkling harbour.

The island is a heritage site and used to house the worst prisoners in Sydney - as well as being an industrial precinct. It has a rich and interesting history. You can get the ferry across to the island and walk around it. There are a couple of cafes on the island too. They also have camping experiences and hold music festivals there. Mid-week is the best time to go (when it's quieter).

Cockatoo Island is a UNESCO world-heritage-listed island in the middle of beautiful Sydney Harbour. Hop on a ferry and explore the island for the day or stay overnight in the campground or holiday houses. Views and an interesting place to visit, if you like industrial architecture.

Cockatoo Island is located in the middle of the harbour and accessible via ferry. It is an interesting, historic island with a bar onsite.
