There are many ways to cruise on Sydney Harbour, from a simple ferry trip across the water to wining and dining in style on a luxury super yacht.
Jump on the ferry!
Travelers on a tight budget can easily flit between attractions using the Sydney Harbour Ferry service. The main ferry terminal is between Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House at Circular Quay.
Enjoy food on your cruise
There are several cruise experiences that offer a daytime or evening meal on a purpose-built cruiser. Choose from a sunset and dinner cruise experience, or upgrade to a ‘gold dinner’ cruise.
Sail the Harbour in a tall ship
Get a taste of yesteryear on Sydney’s only authentic tall ship. Options include a tall ship afternoon discovery cruise, a twilight dinner cruise or a tall ship barbeque lunch cruise.
Get a taste of New Orleans, Showboat style!
While you may be too busy watching the showgirls and tucking into a three-course meal to see much of Sydney Harbour, you’re guaranteed a cruise with a unique twist on a Sydney showboats cruise!
Get hands on as part of a small group yachting tour
Get a taste of how the other half live on a luxury sailing trip around the harbour and enjoy a picnic lunch in one of Sydney’s secluded bays.
Join the crew on a professional racing class yacht
This trip is for true sailing enthusiasts who’ll get to experience the thrill of sailing on a professional racing yacht.
Go Whale-Watching!
Yes, you can see whales just outside Sydney Harbour. If you don’t happen to spot any, you still get to enjoy a cruise of the best harbour sights. You can whale watch from the decks of a cruiser or on a sail-powered eco-tour.
Believe it or not this is just a small range of the cruises on offer to help you make the most of your time in Australia’s beautiful harbour city. For a whole list of options check out Sydney cruises. Happy cruising!
