Circular Quay, Sydney, showing the ferry wharves.
Circular Quay (pronounced ‘Key’) is a major transport hub of visitor’s Sydney. It is where many of the city’s blue-colored government buses terminate. And it’s here where they exchange passengers with trains that stop at Circular Quay Station.
On the Quay itself, you can meet up with the Harbour Ferry and Jetcat services that criss-cross Sydney Harbour. Some head up the Parramatta River through suburbs such as Meadowband and Ryde, others go to Taronga Park Zoo or north to Manly Beach.
There are also several Harbour Cruises you can book from private companies operating from the Circular Quay piers.
And if city buses are not to your taste, there are city trains and a major taxi rank there at Circular Key (Quay).
Circular Quay is at the north tip of the Sydney’s financial diistrict. Quay visitors can walk to the Opera House or The Rocks, or even up to, and across the Harbour Bridge.
Or you can head south on foot and walk directly into the Sydney CBD itself. For example, the Sydney Stock Exchange is in Bridge Street, just two blocks from the Quay. It is located between Pitt and George Streets, the two main streets of business and shopping Sydney. Hunter Street is part of the financial district and Martin Place is the heart of the banking district.
