点评:For tourists, catching the ferry from Circular Quay to Watsons Bay and exploring South Head is one of the very lovely things to do in Sydney.
There’s a lot to do here - dramatic lookout points, harbour beaches, an historic lighthouse, easy walking trails, a waterfront pub and plenty of options for fish and chips.
You can probably pack it all into half a day but you could easily spend a full day if you want a more relaxing, pleasant pace.
The best look-out point here is ‘the Gap’. From the top of near-vertical ocean cliffs, we had breathtaking views across the Tasman Sea. A boarded walkway along the clifftop allows you to spend a bit of time here just taking in the spectacular views from several angles.
There is a small beach beside the ferry but I’d recommend walking a little but further around to Camp Cove Beach which is much, much prettier. I think it’s one of the prettiest harbour beaches.
Camp Cove can get crowded and it's definitely hard to find a car park around here but if you have caught the ferry, it’s an easy and very short walk.
The South Head Heritage Walking Trail also starts from Camp Cove. This is also a 1.7km looped trail which takes you past some very scenic lookout points and some historic military relics and old cannons. About halfway along, we passed the old lighthouse keeper’s cottage and the Hornby Lighthouse which was built in the 1858 after a series of tragic shipwrecks. Perched on the edge of the headland, its distinctive, candy-like red and white stripes make it look like something out of a kid’s story-book.
翻译:对于游客来说,从环形码头乘坐渡轮前往沃森湾,探索南岬角,是悉尼最美好的体验之一。
这里有很多好玩的地方——壮观的观景台、海港海滩、历史悠久的灯塔、轻松的步道、海滨酒吧,以及琳琅满目的炸鱼薯条。
你可能只需要半天时间就能游览完所有景点,但如果你想要更轻松愉悦的节奏,也可以轻松地花上一整天。
这里最好的观景点是“峡谷”。站在近乎垂直的海崖顶端,我们可以欣赏到塔斯曼海的壮丽景色。沿着悬崖顶的木板路,你可以在这里待上一段时间,从多个角度欣赏壮丽的景色。
渡轮旁边有一个小海滩,但我建议你再走远一点,去坎普湾海滩,那里要漂亮得多。我认为它是最漂亮的海港海滩之一。
坎普湾 (Camp Cove) 有时会很拥挤,而且很难找到停车位,但如果您乘坐渡轮,步行很方便,而且很短。
南岬角遗产步道 (South Head Heritage Walking Trail) 也从坎普湾 (Camp Cove) 开始。这条 1.7 公里长的环形步道会带您经过一些风景优美的观景点、一些历史悠久的军事遗迹和古老的大炮。大约走到一半时,我们经过了旧灯塔守护人的小屋和霍恩比灯塔 (Hornby Lighthouse)。霍恩比灯塔建于 1858 年,是在一系列悲惨的沉船事故之后建成的。它坐落在海岬边缘,独特的糖果般的红白条纹使它看起来像儿童故事书里的场景。
