Outer Island
Birding Beyond Sydney Guide (Day Trips)
Your birding adventure begins where Sydney ends.
Just a day trip away, from vital wetlands to the Blue Mountains, you’ll discover birds you won’t find in the city. These sweeping vistas and unique habitats offer something for everyone – whether you’re new to birdwatching, visiting from afar, or a lifelong local.
Outer Island's pocket-sized guide features 20 incredible day trip birdwatching spots from Sydney complete with an illustrated map and mega 100 bird checklist of common birds found outside of the city. Thoughtfully curated, our guide takes you from botanic gardens to coastal rainforests, hanging swamp plateaus and national parks, all with flat, easy paths so you can focus on the birds, not the terrain.
So grab your binoculars and hit the road.
