Notes
- This activity is designed to waste time and relax while you sit and talk to family, friends and enjoy the best Sydney has to offer
- There are many cafe shops in The Rocks, "La Renaissance" is my preferred place, simply for cost.
- The walk between the coffee shop and the quay is 1 minute - make sure use pedestrian crossings.
- The wharf where the round sitting area is, is LOCKED OFF when a ship is docked, other then that you can wander around the peer without issues.
Do
- Do buy a large hot chocolate drink - which at the time of this writing is $3.50 for take away
- Do consider teaming this up with Tim Tams
- Do this at sunset
- Do consider maybe a desert with your hot chocolate. Make sure you check for allergen information (e.g. milk, nuts, etc)
Do NOT
- Do NOT do this when its raining because there is no cover.
- Do NOT do this on weekends because cruise ships are in, and the circular area where you sit is locked off, and you cannot see the Sydney Opera house (unless you sit on the grassy area a bit further down on the grassy area)
- Do NOT walk close to the wharf edge at the quay area, you could fall into the water!
