Nura Diya

Explore iconic and rare Australian fauna and their unique habitats along the 400-metre walking trail. Stroll amongst kangaroos and dingoes, and walk within the tree canopy to see koalas, then venture into the darkness to see curious nocturnal creatures.

Nura Diya Australia combines four unique landscapes: 

  • buru nura – Kangaroo Country 
  • gulamany nura – Koala Country 
  • wuragal nura – Dingo Country 
  • nguwing nura – Nocturnal Country 

Gili Rooftop

It’s a backdrop like no other. The Gili Rooftop function space is an incredible setting with sweeping harbour views by day and shimmering skyline views by night. Watch the sun set over Sydney Harbour whilst enjoying canapes and dinner.
