The Best Picnic Spots in Sydney
Thanks to Sydney being straddled by blue waters, whether it’s the harbour or one of the world-famous beaches, there are endless idyllic locations and postcardesque destinations to explore. We picked our five favourite spots in and around Sydney for the ultimate picnic.
Shark Island
More adventurous picnickers can head to Shark Island, which is located in the middle of the Sydney Harbour, directly in front of Rose Bay. Although there are ferry services to the island, the best way to get there is by putting your hamper on a kayak and paddling over to one of the many gazebos and grassed areas. This little piece of paradise only allows a certain number of people to visit per day, so get there early.
