What's new this week
Eleven more guides, including a genuine site favourite already among the team:
Neighbourhoods: Coogee (a calmer alternative to Bondi, right at the end of the coastal walk) and Parramatta (Sydney's genuine second city centre, with colonial history older than most of what survives downtown).
Things to do: A complete guide to Sydney's ocean pools — the rock-carved sea baths locals swim in instead of fighting rip currents at the open beach — plus the Australian Museum, the country's oldest, recently and thoroughly renovated.
Food & drink: Leichhardt's Norton Street, Sydney's genuine Little Italy, and a guide to the city's rotating night markets and food trucks.
Day trips: Two bigger commitments that reward the extra distance — Jervis Bay's famously white sand, and Port Stephens' resident dolphin pod and desert-like sand dunes, both better suited to an overnight stay than a rushed single day.
Practical info: An Australian slang cheat sheet (the useful, everyday version, not the exaggerated stereotype), and a time zone and daylight saving explainer that solves a genuinely common visitor booking mistake.
