Top 5 Venues In Western Sydney You Must Visit
The Western Suburbs of Sydney have so much to offer visitors and locals alike. In fact, you could spend years exploring this region of the state’s capital and still not see and experience everything.
This article is going to be highlighting just some of the venues and places you should check out in Western Sydney. The list is in no particular order and, of course, it’s not an exhaustive list of options by any means.
#1 – Experience Raging Waters In Prospect
Summer is upon us once again and what’s one of the best things you can do to cool off and enjoy yourself? By getting wet, of course.
Formally known as Wet’n’Wild Sydney, Raging Waters is an awesome water park where you can get an adrenaline rush on the many water slides, or simply chill out and cool off in the pool.
There are also stores inside the park where you can purchase merchandise and souvenirs, along with a restaurant and cafe for food and refreshments.
Make a day of it, experience the thrills of the 360Rush Waterslide, or spend some time chilling out at The Beach. It’s an awesome day out for people of all ages.
#2 – Do You Wanna Know What It’s Like To Fly?
You can experience exactly that when you pay a visit to iFly Downunder Indoor Skydiving in Penrith. There’s no need for expensive plane flights and having to leap out of a perfectly good aircraft at 10,000 feet with a parachute that you pray opens. You can enjoy the same thrill ride in this awesome indoor skydiving centre. It’s perfectly safe and even kids as young as 3 can have a go.
The powerful wind draft will propel you up into the air, where you’ll really feel like you’re actually flying. It’s as close as you can get to real skydiving, but at a fraction of the cost and not anywhere near as scary.
Enjoy the experience of a lifetime and something you will never forget.
#3 – The Bar & Grill Waterview
The Bar & Grill Waterview is one of the best club dining options in Silverwater. If you’re after a delicious meal and your favourite ice cold alcoholic beverages in a casual environment, then this Silverwater venue is a must visit for lunch or dinner.
You can enjoy your favourite entrees like oysters, calamari or bruschetta and salivate over main dishes like grilled herbed salmon or scotch fillet steak. The menu is quite varied, so there is something to suit everyone’s taste buds and there is even a kiddies menu.
As part of a social and entertainment club, following a meal and some drinks at the Bar & Grill, you can check out some live entertainment inside the club.
Located right near the Parramatta River, Silverwater is a pleasant place to spend an afternoon or evening.
#4 – How About a Spot of Aqua Golf?
Ever thought of (or even heard of) playing aqua golf? Well, you can do just that in Penrith in Sydney’s West.
It’s a fun activity that’s suited to people of all ages, whether you have ever played golf before or not. Aqua Golf is like a driving range and involves hitting the balls out into the water instead of onto grass. Enjoy the spectacular backdrop of the majestic Blue Mountains as you tee off and watch your golf ball sail out into the deep.
You buy the balls by the bucket and clubs are provided. Make a group booking for your friends, family or special occasion and do something different for a day.
#5 – Enjoy Nature Walks and a Picnic At Western Sydney Parklands
Western Sydney Parklands is an urban nature reserve and is located not far from trendy Parramatta. Covering more than 5000 hectares and boasting 60km of walking tracks and trails to explore, you can easily spend an entire day in the park, checking out the native flora and fauna. When your legs need a break, find a secluded and shady spot to spread out a blanket and enjoy a cold drink and picnic lunch.
You could explore the parklands on your own for some peace and solitude, or team up with friends or family and make it a social adventure.
