Feel the sand between your toes as you visit Sydney’s most quaint fishing village on the Watsons Bay Hiking Tour. Enjoy beautiful scenic sights such as Macquaries Lighthouse, Gibsons Beach and others along Sydney’s stunning coastline. Your very own tour guide will make this an unforgettable experience by sharing stories & history, bringing you to see some incredible views and iconic spots in Sydney.

We’ll begin our tour with a ferry ride from Circular Quay to one of Sydney’s most cherished fishing villages, Watsons Bay. The ferry ride itself provides beautiful sights and views of the Sydney Harbour. Our first stop is South Head, known for its sharp cliffs, military history and is a great place for whale watching. We’ll also look out at an unbeatable view of the harbour at The Gap.

Next stop, we’ll walk on over to Australia’s first and longest serving lighthouse, Macquarie Lighthouse. This is a true national treasure as its a fully operational lighthouse and is named after one of the early Governors of the New South Wales colony. After, we’ll walk down some side streets, taking in more gorgeous views of Sydney and then onto one of Watson Bay’s beautiful beaches, Gibsons Beach. Our tour guide will provide history, facts, and stories all along our walk.

Last but not least, we’ll have a drink at one of Australia’s oldest oldest standing structures, a home built in the 1830s, the Dunbar House. Then back on the ferry to Sydney to end our tour.
