Sydney & Heron Island
11days/8 nights from $2,599 per person
Sunny, sexy and sophisticated, Sydney is the shining star of the southern hemisphere. The white-sailed Sydney Opera House over the waters of Sydney Cove, and the Sydney Harbor Bridge are the pride and joy, but there's far more on offer. Discover the harbor, the city's historic enclaves, restaurants and cafes, beaches, museums and art galleries.
One thing’s for certain -
you’ll run out of time before you run out of things to see and do in
Sydney.
Heron Island is a true coral cay right on the World Heritage Listed Great Barrier Reef. Here you can swim straight off the beach to an endless garden of coral where the waters are literally teeming with beautifully colored fish and marine life.
It's what you don't see around Heron that makes the resort so special. You won't see any buildings above the tree line. And you won't bump into any day trippers either. The reef experience on Heron is exclusively for guests, a unique experience few other resorts in the world can offer.
