    It’s been dubbed ‘Sydney’s first city beach’ after a ban on swimming at Barangaroo Reserve’s Marrinawi Cove was lifted. Guardian Australia went to test out the waters in the heart of the CBD and found the cove teeming with swimmers and even some snorkellers. It’s the first swimming spot to open in 50 years west of the Sydney Harbour Bridge as water quality improves in what was once a heavy industrial maritime site. A shark net is in place to allay fears of an encounter with one of the many bull sharks in the harbor and there are showers to wash off the water after a dip. The new swimming area is aimed at improving access to the water for more Sydneysiders  Water worlds: the magic of New South Wales’ ocean pools
