Adrenalin Junkies Guide to Sydney

Sydney really is a city that has it all and adrenaline junkies have a huge variety of heart stopping activities to experience. From skydiving to jet boating, paragliding to swimming with crocodiles, Sydney is more than just the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House.

Book your and get ready for a non-stop high octane adventuref that what floats your speed-boat!


Down-under Jet Boat

The Down-under Jet Boat's speed and agility rivals that of any Formula 1 car! There is some serious engine under this big hunk of metal! The boat performs 270 degree spins, actually surfs the waves and does some wild, but very controlled manoeuvres. Thankfully the roar of the engine and the splashing of the sea water are loud enough to hide your screams!

Skydiving the Beach

There's no better way to celebrate life than by doing something that may possibly be the last thing you ever do! Skydiving is the holy grail of adrenaline sports. You'll reach free-fall speeds of over 200 km per hour and the parachute ride down to the beach lasts about 5 minutes. A lovely, albeit terrifying, way to see Sydney from above...if you can keep your eyes open that is!

Paragliding

Paragliding can be nearly as scary as jumping out of a plane only you get a bit more time in the air to appreciate the experience before it is all over. The Sydney Paragliding Centre has a perfect safety record, and tandem rides cost about $160. They will also take photos for you so there is no need to cling on to a camera as you fly through the air!

Sydney Skywalk

Located in the heart of the city, you'll get to wander around the rooftop of one of the city's tallest buildings,Mbt Schuhe Kipimo, the Sydney Tower with its glass-floored viewing platform being one of the highlights. Skywalk runs every hour,Mbt Schuhe Haraka, and you don't need to book. If you have a head for heights this is a piece of cake. If you donell, do it anyway!

Indoor Flying Trapeze

The Indoor Flying Trapeze does require a modicum of skill. Unlike skydiving, where you just have to scream and make it to the ground in one piece, this experience involves being taught how to perform tricks on the flying trapeze, some trampoline skills and a few aerobatics. Youl even get a video of your acrobatic adventure at the end.

Abseiling Empress Canyon

This experience is great for those with a low adrenaline tolerance as abseiling is fairly controlled, and the drops are well graduated. The abseiling is mixed up with scenic walks, swims and waterslides. Go on, give it a try!

Caving at Wee Jasper in Canberra

A little out of the Sydney city centre, you can quite easily hop on a bus down to Canberra for the experience of caving at Wee Jasper. There are plenty of stunning limestone features here, and the exploring is mixed up with abseiling around the caves. Lunch is included so it well worth the trip!

Surfing in Sydney

Suring is a way of life in Australia. This sun drenched land has endless coasts where sport fanatics and adrenaline junkies converge and try out the waves where surfing conditions are world class. Head to the places where the pro surf and youl be in for some hair-raising waves for sure,Mbt Sandalen Sadiki!

Shark Diving

There is always a chance you could run into a shark while diving in the deep blue, but if youe looking for a slightly more controlled experience, where you have less chance of being lunch, then swim with the sharks at the local aquarium. Jump in to the enclosed tank while these big fish gracefully swim past you, and if youe lucky, feast upon some grub.

Bungee jumping

Just like skydiving,Mbt Schuhe Kesho, bungee jumping is yet another exhilarating activity that is popular in Australia. If you don like the idea of falling from the sky without being attached to anything, then this is probably the adrenaline activity for you. Bungee locations are available all over Australia,Mbt Schuhe Kamba, but the oldest one is located in the Gold Coast. There, youl drop for 14 stories right outside Surfers Paradise.

White water rafting

The tropical north is an excellent spot to try your hand at some white water rafting through beautiful scenery. Depending on experience and adventure desired,mbt zum Verkauf, there are also different levels of rapids to suit your needs.

Zorbing

Zorbing is probably one of the strangest things you can do in your time down under and involves jumping into a giant plastic ball that is pumped with a bit of water and then pushed down a hill. Try doing it with a few of your friends trapped inside as well! You might as well rope them in too!

Swim with Crocs

You can easily find yourself face to face with a crocodile if you jump into waters without taking note of signs and warnings in the area. No one in their right mind would fancy an experience quite like that, but there is another way to swim with crocs if you so wish. Crocosaurus Cove Animal Park lets you jump right into a pool of crocs, in what is cheeringly known as he Cage of Death? Although located in Darwin,Mbt Schuhe Karani, thrill seekers may want to venture this far for the experience!
