Getting There By Water
Passenger services dock at Darling Harbour Passenger Terminal, located a short walk from the city centre, while cruise ships berth at the Sydney Cove Passenger Terminal, Circular Quay. There are no facilities at the terminals, although the nearby Rocks and Darling Harbour both have restaurants, ATMs and other conveniences. Information is available from the Department of Shipping (tel: (02) 9296 4999; website: www.sydneyports.com.au).
Ferry services: There is probably no more dramatic way for one to arrive in Sydney than by water. However, services to Australia are limited. From Europe, the USA and Hong Kong, P&O (tel: 132 469, Australia only; fax: (02) 8424 9161; e-mail: information@pocruises.com.au; website: www.pocruises.com.au) and Cunard (tel: (02) 9250 6666; website: www.cunardline.com.au) include Sydney on their itineraries.
Transport to the city: There are frequent bus, ferry and CityRail connections from both Circular Quay and Darling Harbour.
