Jutting out into Sydney Harbour, Garden Island lies to the east of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Circular Quay. This site serves as the home of the Royal Australian Navy’s fleet and its heritage center. Visitors can explore colonial-era fortifications, walk on the first grass tennis court in Australia, and stroll through a heritage rose garden. The island offers a blend of military history and natural beauty, providing a unique glimpse into the region’s past and present.
