About This Boat Tour

Step aboard for a curated journey that takes you past the world famous city icons, through the harbour bays, and into secluded inlets surrounded by natural bushland that most visitors never see.

Your captain will drop anchor at a tucked-away beach, where you can swim or relax, and the crew will prepare a delicious classic Aussie-Style BBQ buffet with grilled meats, salads and classic sides - It’s the perfect way to soak up Sydney’s laid-back lifestyle.

Whether it's your first time in Sydney or your visiting friends, this is a relaxed, effortless way to experience the harbour - a favourite pastime of many Sydneysider's.
