This post is all about a 3 day Sydney itinerary: 3 Days Of Fun in Australia
Day 1: The Beautiful Bondi Beach
Morning: Bondi Beach Bliss
If you’re looking to create the best 3 day Sydney itinerary, you HAVE to add Bondi Beach to that list.
I absolutely loved Bondi Beach and I know you’ll too! Whether you’re surfing, swimming in the pool, or relaxing at the beach, pack your sunscreen and your favorite swimsuit for a day of sun, sand, and surf at Bondi Beach.
If you plan to go to the iconic iceberg pools (which you should!) don’t forget to bring a towel or you’ll have to pay for one there. Make sure to add some time in your 3 day Sydney itinerary to explore the small town for cute boutique clothing stores, and jewelry stores, and to grab a bite!
Lunch: Seafood Feast at Sydney Fish Market
From freshly shucked oysters to succulent prawns, indulge in a feast fit for a sea-loving queen. Don't forget to explore the bustling market stalls with the catch of the day!
Evening: Explore Sydney Opera House
No 3 day Sydney itinerary would be complete without visiting the iconic The Sydney Opera House.
An architectural masterpiece, a great vibrant performance space, and just a fun place to walk around! You can grab some dinner there too if you’re hungry at Midden by Mark Olive, which is delicious, or grab a quick coffee!
Day 2: Thrilling Adventures & Koala Encounters
Morning: Encounter Koalas and Kangaroos
Imagine spending the morning having breakfast with the cutest koalas! Dreams come true at the Wild Life Sydney Zoo, where you can see some of the most endangered creatures in the world including Tasmanian Devils, Tree Kangaroos, and Wombats.
It is truly the most adorable thing, don’t forget your cameras, and definitely add it to your 3 day Sydney itinerary.
Afternoon: Conquer The BridgeClimb Sydney
No 3 day Sydney itinerary is complete without THIS memorable experience, where you journey to the top of the nation’s most famous structure, the Sydney Harbour Bridge. With 360-degree views, climb up to an exhilarating adventure where you’re connected, only by a piece of rope! (This was our favorite experience and one I highly recommend doing!)
You won’t be able to bring a phone up here, but there’s a photographer, and I believe you can with a go pro chest strap.
Evening: Discover Hidden Gems in Barangaroo Reserve
This was one of my favorite boardwalks in Sydney, with truly amazing restaurants, sights, and nightlife! If you want to grab a drink, head up to Cirq Bar & Lounge. It’s a great way to see one of the most iconic hotels, the Crown in Sydney and has unbelievable views. Plus the drinks are amazing.
Definitely add visiting The Crown and Barangaroo Reserve to your 3 day Sydney itinerary
Dinner: A’Mare
For dinner check out a’Mare, located in the same building, Crown Sydney. They have been awarded two prestigious Chef Hats and celebrate the simplicity of fine ingredients. Plus the tiramisu was some of the best I’ve ever had. Book in advance!
Day 3: Manly Beach
Morning: Spending the day at the gorgeous Manly Beach
Travel over the Sydney Harbour Bridge to discover another side of the city to Manly Beach.
Sydney's North has such stunning natural beauty, from unspoiled national parks to stunning beaches, this one is a local favorite and a must add to your 3 day Sydney itinerary!
**Lunch (MUST EAT) : The Manly Pavilion
Overlooking the Manly Cove and Sydney Harbour, this was one of the best meals we had in Sydney! We even saw dolphins swimming as we were enjoying our delicious lunch. It has beautiful waterfront views, modern Australian menus, and the most beautiful interior.
Afternoon: Explore Manly with Ebikes
What better way to see Manly Beach than to get an ebike? It’s one of the most ideal ways to explore Sydney’s most beautiful coastal town and such a fun activity to add to your 3 day Sydney itinerary. I recommend going to the Manhole, the North Head Sanctuary Walk, and the Boathouse on bike. You can cover most of these within 2 hours!
Evening: Feast at Queen Chow
Sitting right on the water at Manly Wharf, Queen Chow Manly rivals the best neighborhood Cantonese restaurants in Hong Kong. As someone who is Cantonese, this food was amazing. It’s a great way to try Chinese food in Australia and try Australian Lobster!
**Bonus: Luna Park
A bomus to your Sydney itinerary is Luna Park, a really fun place where a lot of locals go! Known for the iconic open-mouth gate, take the ferry here for some iconic views and fun carnival games. You only need an hour or two here.
Until We Meet Again, Sydney
Maybe you’re headed home, or maybe to another part of Australia! But I know your cherished memories of sun-drenched beaches, and iconic landmarks will follow you forever with this perfect 3 day Sydney itinerary. Whether you’re a thrill seeker, cultural, or animal lover, Sydney has everything to offer.
