Darling
Harbour is intended to be one of Sydney's "buzz"
places, although some visitors find it lacking in character
(and greenery). A former dockside area, the small harbour
has been transformed into a major tourist site and leading
convention and exhibition centre.Darling Harbour has
been a place that has appealed more to little folk,
due to the number of children's attractions, but the
advent of the Cockle Wharf restaurant and cafe complex
has added a new dimension to Darling Harbour. 
Bondi
is well known for its great sandy beach, as well as
its surf. It is a modern and trendy coastal resort,
which is very popular. Bondi has a number of cafes and
restaurants which look out over the beach and makes
a great place to stay and visit.Within the golf course
there are some great Aboriginal rock engravings, giving
you an excuse to have a break from the game.
