Phillip Island & Eden from Sydney

There are two dedicated cruise passenger terminals - the White Bay Cruise Terminal at Rozelle and the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay in the city centre. This is your opportunity to marvel at Australia’s famous icons, the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge as you glide past The Heads - the dramatic sandstone cliffs at the entrance of the harbour.

Set in Twofold Bay on the Sapphire Coast, Eden is known for the migrating whales that cruise through its waters between May and November.

• bush walk through Ben Boyd National Park
• visit Eden Lookout for the best views of Twofold Bay
