SYDNEY NAMED BEST CITY IN SOUTH PACIFIC

T+L readers love to experience food, adventure, and culture down under. These are the top destinations, broken out by cities and islands, in the 2024 “World’s Best Awards” survey.

Traveling to Oceania is a commitment: it typically takes around a day to fly there from the U.S., there’s a massive time-zone change, and the price tag is not minor. Consequently, the region is a trip of a lifetime for many, with travelers making the most out of the journey to experience the show-stopping natural beauty, vibrant cities, some of the oldest cultures on the planet, heart-pumping adventures, and the world’s largest coral reef. From Australia to New Zealand to Fiji to French Polynesia, the Oceania region is filled with places to explore.

Sydney has claimed the top spot in Travel + Leisure's 2024 World’s Best Awards survey in the Australia, New Zealand and South Pacific cities category.

Travel + Leisure said: "This Aussie city is perpetually on the list, often in the No. 1 spot. This year, the cosmopolitan center reclaims top billing because, as one reader puts it, 'Sydney is one of those towns you will never forget'.

"Its 100-plus gorgeous beaches and the iconic coastal walks between many of them stick with you, as does the outstanding restaurant and bar scene, the stellar museums and galleries and the picturesque skyline dotted with architectural landmarks. The exceptional weather, friendly locals, and easy-to-navigate streets and waterways don’t hurt either.”
