ITINERARY: Surf Camp <> Sydney
We get up early to get some wave action with your included surf lesson. The Mojo Surf crew will have you standing up in no time. Stay longer if you reckon surfing’s your thing! After that there’s lots of bush, cool tunes and sometimes a bus-stop before we reach Sydney.
Sydney is the home of Oz Experience. You can find our Oz Ex Site at 804 George St, Sydney Central (near the railway station). It is one of the 3 pick ip and drop off points in Sydney. Sydney is the country's capital in everything but name. It is the economic heart of Australia and is also its oldest and largest city, with a population of around four million people. It is a city that is alive in so many ways, boasting towering skyscrapers and vibrant night life, scrumptiously unique restaurants as well as brilliant shopping. Yet it is also home to a surprising array of natural beauty, from the harbour with its sandstone headlands and surrounding bush, to its world famous beaches. Staying in Sydney
There is plenty of backpacker accommodation in Sydney. You can stay next to world famous Bondi Beach, Coogee Beach and Manly. If you want to stay in the heart of the City then check out base backpackers and Wake Up, both large hostels in the CBD with all the facilities you need ......
Alternatively, if you want to stay in funky Kings Cross, try the retro Chilli Blue. Kings Cross is the bohemian side of Sydney where cafes mix with the light district and cheap bars and clubs. There is always something happening in the "Cross" and its only 10 minutes walk to the City. Chilli Blue is the closest hostel to Oz Experiences Kings Cross pick up point, corner of Macleay and Orwell Streets.
