SYDNEY 1ST ED, TIME OUT SHORTLIST

Multicultural, laid-back, and unapologetically hedonistic, Sydney's got it all, from a stunning natural setting and perfect climate to the world-famous Opera House and the southern hemisphere's most vibrant gay and lesbian scene. This updated edition, written by a team of locals, offers in-depth coverage of Sydney's vibrant eating and drinking venues; the best beaches; Aboriginal history and culture; and sports galore including whale-watching. Not to be missed are the coasts, rivers, and mountains of unspoiled New South Wales, plus the best of the rest of Australia.
