If it weren't for the occasional passing ferry, swimmers at Collins Beach could easily be fooled into thinking they were in the middle of nowhere. Nestled into Spring Cove, near North Head, it's one of Sydney's least-visited beaches, despite being just 1.3km from the Manly Wharf. The trick is it's only accessible on foot — or by boat. You can't exactly swim under the waterfall, but you can partake in the slightly surreal experience of standing in it — or behind it — while looking out at Sydney Harbour. As far as a post-swim shower goes, it's tough to beat. Plus there are fairy penguins. Best to visit shortly after rainfall.

As far as watery outdoor day trips go, Wattamolla has everything — not only a waterfall but a lagoon and a beach to boot. Reaching the 7m high waterfall requires a 50m swim from the lagoon's edge. Some people attempt a shortcut by jumping straight in, but that's actually against National Parks and Wildlife regulations. After a swim, relax in the shade of cabbage tree palms, take a bush walk or spend the rest of the day looking out for sea eagles and oystercatchers. Wattamolla is a 50-minute drive from the Sydney CBD, in the eastern section of the Royal National Park.
We have been here... it's awesome

You'll find this misty, magical swimming hole in the Budderoo National Park, near Robertson in the Southern Highlands. (That's a 90-minute drive from Sydney). Home to lush, ferny vegetation, brightly coloured orchids and satin bower birds, it's like a scene from the Lord of the Rings trilogy. If you're feeling particularly adventurous, a 2-hour hike (actually, 'hike' is a too civilised a word; it's more part bush bash, part rock scramble) will take you to the base of the spectacular 50m high Carrington Falls. Note that this trail is unmarked and therefore unsuitable for inexperienced walkers. Another option is driving to Carrington Falls Picnic Area.

I personally like small zoos because I can have a more closer experience with the animals. The main Sydney zoo is the Taronga zoo, located in the heart of Sydney.
