Kamay Botany Bay National Park

The sandstone in this area is amazing. Most of Sydney's base is sandstone and clay. The colours that come out are stunning. This area is also where James Cook set up for a British Colony in 1770 in Botany Bay (Same area as this photo). Only a short bus ride or drive from the city center of Sydney. #nature

Well worth a visit if you can make it. Then finish your trip off of with a good serve of Fish and Chips from a good establishment just behind this building.

Captain Cook's Landing Place

Learn about the local history of Sydney when you take a trip to Captain Cook's Landing Place. Discover the top-notch restaurants and entertainment choices in this walkable area.

I recommend photographing this place during the summer. Also the sun sets are lengthy and in a good area.

The main attraction is the Caltex Jetty that unloads terrible oily stuff from the cargo ships. So you may get a large ship docked at the end of it.

NOTE: Its a good 2hr drive from Sydney

Beautiful beach on the south east coast of Sydney. The sand isn't as fine as some of the other eastern beaches but it was a beautiful spot. We were able to go around on the rocks and experience the waves crashing in. It was pretty rocky and it felt like we were jumping around on moon/crater/lava fields.
