We're doing a house swap with friends in Sydney (Seaforth, Northern Beaches area) for 3 months, just about to book flights for the start of April.

The last time we went was about 20 years ago so we would love some more recent tips on things to do /see (other than the obvious touristy stuff)  The friends we're swapping with will be giving us loads of tips anyway but it's always good to get other people's suggestions.

We're artists/ designers so would be interested in suggestions of any lesser known contemporary art galleries or events etc. We're planning to paint whilst there. Wondering if art supplies are likely to be more expensive here or there? What about getting a cheap phone for a local sim card - any idea if it's better to get the cheapest phone we can here or in Sydney?

Also any suggestions of off the beaten track places to visit would be great.

We'll have access to a car and are up for long distance travel by road too.

All tips / suggestions welcome, thanks.

Only been for a 3 week holiday. Scan the AirBnB "experiences" these can be people on their own sharing their hobby. We did sailing in Sydney harbour, motorboating, and a "speakeasy" pub crawl which was a laugh, we all got trashed and went clubbing. The drive up the east coast to Brisbane isn't scenic, you're just starting at motorway fencing all the way. Fenced roads are for night driving. People don't drive unfenced roads in the countryside at night unless they have "roo bars"

    • I wonder how much the rebranding is costing in total?  Could the money be used in a better way ? 
    • It's not fair to hold Corbyn's brother's views against him when he has never explicitly or implicitly endorsed them. And he has enough of his own terrible positions to criticise anyway.
    • Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead? Sorry Alice but we'll have to disagree on this one. This does not sound like kids just being silly; lobbing water bombs at each other is one thing, but targeting complete strangers out for a walk and minding their own business and trying to kick their dog is, in my view, no laughing matter. A group of 15 teenagers can be intimidating, not to everyone but for some it can be, especially if their behaviour is aggressive.  
    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
