The largest arm of Port Jackson, which extends west from the Heads past Balmain and meets the estuaries of the Lane Cove and Parramatta rivers.

Kirribilli

full record »

Now containing the residences of the Prime Minister (Kirribilli House) and the Governor-General (Admiralty House), its uninterrupted views across the Harbour make it one of Sydney's most desirable suburbs.
