One of the best half-day activities in Sydney is the Sydney Harbour National
Park walk. Leaving Circular Quay in the early afternoon, take a bus to the Spit
Bridge in Mosman - the walk starts a short walk from there and continues along
the coast, passing through numerous lookouts, small beaches, rocky outcrops and
cliffs. After a couple of hours, you reach Manly, the end of the walk - it's
one of the big beaches North of the bridge where you can have a wander before
taking a ferry back to Circular Quay, passing the Opera House and the bridge on
the water, close to sunset. It's just fantastic! However, don't let too many
locals know about it. :-)
P.S. You didn't indicate any preferences for activities (or types of
photography) but if you can be a little more specific (e.g.
comatose/relaxed/active/strenuous/masochistic), I can probably let you know
more... :-)
