Little Sirius Bay
Little Sirius Cove is a quietly tucked-away spot on the western shore of Port Jackson, just a short distance from Taronga Zoo. You anchor off here and can dinghy ashore to a small sandy beach backed by a grassy area with a kids' playground. The HMS Sirius, flagship of the First Fleet, lends the cove its name — she anchored in these same waters back in 1788.
