Sydney SUBURB Guides

Know Sydney like a local.

Covara guests have access to our curated neighbourhood guides, hand-crafted by our team to help you discover the best of Sydney’s finest suburbs.

About these guides

Sydney, seen through a local's eyes.

Every Covara guide is written by our Sydney team, people who live and breathe these neighbourhoods. We don’t list everything. We curate the places we’d genuinely recommend to a close friend visiting for the first time.

Each guide covers where to eat, drink, swim, walk and explore, plus the local knowledge that doesn’t make it onto any list. Updated regularly to stay current.

Sydney’s finest suburbs, explored.

Mosman

Old money charm meets harbour-front elegance.

Tree-lined streets, clifftop walks and some of Sydney’s best dining. Mosman is understated luxury at its finest, a suburb that rewards the curious and those seeking the high-end lifestyle.

Bondi

World’s most famous beach, beyond postcards.

There’s far more to Bondi than the beach. From the coastal walk to Bronte, to the restaurant strip on Hall Street, to the weekend market at Bondi Pavilion, this guide shows you the real Bondi.
