Wolverine Filming Location | Sydney’s Only Fully Preserved Shipyard — Cockatoo Island 🚢🦸‍♂️

#summervacay One of Sydney’s must-visit spots, right next to Darling Harbour, is Cockatoo Island — the city’s only large-scale industrial heritage site that’s completely intact and also listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site! This fascinating island was originally a convict prison, with intact prison cells, solitary confinement rooms, dungeons, tunnels, and huge granaries. Up until 1991, it served as Australia’s core shipbuilding hub, constructing and repairing numerous naval and commercial vessels — all perfectly preserved as if frozen in time. Spending a day here feels like stepping back into the last century! And for movie buffs, it’s also famous as the mutant laboratory of General Stryker in The Wolverine movie. Getting There: Catch a ferry from Circular Quay or Darling Harbour — just one stop from Darling Harbour to Cockatoo Island. Cost: Free entry! Explore history, film magic, and breathtaking views all in one place — Cockatoo Island is a Sydney gem you can’t miss! #cockatooisland #sydneyhistory #wolverinemoviespot #unescoheritage #industrialheritage #sydneyhiddengems
