Located on an island in Sydney Harbour, Fort Denison Island once serves as a defensive facility for Syndey Harbour and colonial prison. These days it offers a museum and, with 360-degree views of the Sydney Harbour, a fine place to enjoy a picnic. Head into the fort's sandstone Martello Tower to see a collection of colonial artifacts. If you plan to take a Hop-On Hop-Off cruise, see which of the boats stop at the fort. Before you head to Sydney, plan trip itinerary details with our user-friendly Sydney tour planner, to make sure you see all that Sydney has to offer, including Fort Denison Island.

Interesting example of military architecture, small museum with the history of the site, visit to the martello Tower. The tower is the last of its kind built in the British Empire: this is a very specific type of Tower, takes its name from the fortification towers genovesi di capo mortelle in corsica.
