DrinkDarling Harbour

Cargo Bar & Lounge

Perennially packed waterside bar. Caters for a diverse crowd, from younger party-goers to after-work business types, and tourists. Hard to feel out of place there.

Busy Buses
A massive aquarium. In addition to various display tanks (penguins, platypus, various fish species), it has three underwater walks where visitors walk in glass corridors underneath and between the dugongs, sharks, rays and tropical fish. There is a 2-minute "penguin ride" in a small boat, heavily advertised but underwhelming. Consider going on a weekday evening, to avoid some of the crowds.
