Pearl Boxing Day Hobart Race

Looking for a unique way to spend Boxing Day? Instead of a quiet family gathering, watching the cricket, or diving into the Boxing Day sales, why not escape to the harbour for a Sydney Boxing Day Cruise?

As one of Sydney Harbour's longest-running private charter operators, we offer the ultimate front-row seat to the start of the iconic Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race. Witness the thrill as a fleet of world-class racing yachts gathers near Nielsen Park and Shark Island, waiting for the starting signal. As the signal sounds, these stunning vessels spring to life, unfurling colourful spinnakers and navigating the bustling waters, framed by the spectacular backdrop of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge. It’s a breathtaking display of precision, power, and beauty as they set off on their epic 628-nautical-mile journey to Hobart.

Our Boxing Day cruise is perfect for all ages, offering a festive yet relaxed atmosphere for families, couples, and friends alike. Imagine recovering from Christmas Day in style - cruising through Sydney Harbour, taking in the city’s famous skyline, and enjoying the race without the crowds. It’s an ideal outing for both tourists and locals who want to see the city from a new perspective, surrounded by the holiday spirit without the hectic city pace.

Your Boxing Day Package includes:
• A 3.5-hour harbour cruise with unbeatable views of the race start, following the yachts as they head toward the Heads.
• A delicious buffet menu, featuring fresh seafood and Aussie favourites.
• An open bar with premium beer, wine, champagne, and soft drinks.

This Boxing Day, create unforgettable memories with loved ones as you soak up an iconic Aussie day on the water. Our itinerary is thoughtfully designed to balance activity and relaxation, letting you savour the sights, sounds, and tastes of Sydney Harbour as you recharge from the Christmas festivities. Make this Boxing Day one for the books!
