Humpback whale, Coffs Harbour


Back to nature in Sydney and New South Wales


Nature lovers will be spoiled for choice during a stay in Sydney and New South Wales, with a range of habitats home to a dazzling array of flora and fauna


From coasts to mountains and rainforests to outback, the diversity of New South Wales (NSW) makes it a must-visit for nature lovers. Sydney’s stunning gardens and parks are


home to fruit bats, butterflies, rainbow lorikeets and sulphur-crested cockatoos, so clients can get acquainted with the native wildlife within hours of stepping off their Qantas flight. The North Coast, Central Coast and South


Coast all offer great opportunities to explore the bountiful marine life of the Pacific Ocean, and there’s nothing more awe-inspiring than watching migrating whales pass by between May and November from vantage points along the coast, including Sydney’s foreshore. Boat trips give clients a chance to get closer,


whether spotting dolphins from a cruise in Jervis Bay, or getting to the best snorkelling spots on the world’s most southerly reef, off Lord Howe Island. You can even take the plunge and swim with wild dolphins in Port Stephens, or with fur seals in the waters off Montague Island.


NATURAL WONDERS Away from the coast, Sydney and NSW offer a wealth of habitats that are home to those Australian icons, the kangaroo, koala


and kookaburra, plus a host of other wildlife. Keen-eyed visitors might spot wombats


ambling along the slopes of the Snowy Mountains, or peeking out from behind the


Seal swimming at Montague Island, near Narooma
