Iconic Greenpeace ship the Rainbow Warrior has stopped in Circular Quay for the first leg of its Making Oil History tour to draw attention to the threat posed by oil drilling to the Great Australian Bight.

The Warrior will be stationed in Sydney for one day only to run tours for the public before departing for a voyage along the East Coast to Melbourne, South Australia, and WA where it will launch a number of reports and conduct scientific research documenting the unsung beauty of the Bight.
