The exact origins of Sydney's Centennial Park Eels is a long standing urban myth. The answer lies over 2,000 kilometres away on a tropical island.
They can also famously be seen in the Parramatta River, and countless waterways around New South Wales.
It turns out these eels don't just appear in the inland park - they migrate through a near-miraculous journey over Golf Courses, Airport Runways and Pacific Islands, all to end up in Sydney's eastern Suburbs. Their birth reportedly takes place in the deep tropical waters of an ocean trench, over 2000 kilometres from Sydney.The path of the eel's odyssey of migration.
The Eels infiltrate 15 kilometres inland to Centennial Park by entering the waters of Botany Bay, at the "mill stream" a tiny inlet next to the eastern runway of Sydney International Airport.
