Sydney : Outdoor

Coastal walk

Walk around the coast from Coogee Bay to Bondi taking in the pretty coves along the way. Takes about half a day.
Manly beach walk

Taking the ferry over to Manly beach and walking the coast line back to Sydney Harbour Bridge
The Blue Mountains

There are plenty of day trips leaving from Sydney to the Blue Mountains National Park. I went myself - by train which was alot cheaper. It takes 2 hours but riding on the comfortable double decker train is an experience in itself! If you get off at Katoomba, it is a great base for your day. You can walk to the main national park or catch a bus where you can see the three sisters, the famous rock formation. This is unmissable! The national park was previously a mining site and is home to the worlds steepest railway. You can get combined tickets for this and the cable car, which takes you in and out of the valley. A fantastic day out, make sure you wear good walking shoes!
The water and its ferries

Just being able to travel in the open air around the main attractions in and sround Sydney Harbour and down to the pacific Ocean is tremendous
