This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 4 sydney catamaran cruises that earn the money, with what the meal and the bar cover and the one thing to check before you pay.
Cruise from Darling Harbour aboard Fantasea Avalon, a fast, purpose-built catamaran with air-conditioned cabins, panoramic windows, and two levels of viewing space. Reach the open ocean in about 30 minutes, then watch for humpback whales and dolphins with an English-speaking crew.
“Saw 4 whales - came close to a boat. Brilliant experience”
Board Kirralee at Man O'War Steps beside the Opera House for a relaxed one-hour cruise with up to 30 passengers. You will circle the Opera House, pass under the Harbour Bridge, and head toward Darling Harbour while enjoying a grazing platter, soft drink or water, and friendly crew such as Phil, Emily, or Yolanda.
“The easiest 10/10 ever! Stunning views, the service was amazing and such good value for money. The best ending to a trip of a lifetime. Couldn’t recommend this experience enough. I think their names were Adam & Phil (so sorry if I’ve got that wrong) and they were friendly and professional. We loved it so much!”
You’ll spend 90 minutes aboard the 55-foot Whitehaven catamaran, sailing past the Opera House and Harbour Bridge during Vivid Sydney. Enjoy a complimentary arrival drink, indoor and outdoor seating, and a licensed bar. Cruise director Sam may be on hand, with hot canapes and snacks available to buy.
“It was nice to see the lights at night, vivid Sydney. Next time I am doing the Catamaran”
Cruise Sydney Harbour aboard the 35-foot Kirralee during Vivid Sydney. You’ll pass the Harbour Bridge, Opera House, Circular Quay, Barangaroo, and Darling Harbour with an experienced skipper and host. Bring your own wine or beer, enjoy antipasto, and dress warmly for the evening breeze.
“The experience was amazing. We can recommend the cruise to everyone. The crew was very professional and friendly. Thank you. We had great time.”
By what the day is for, by what comes with the ticket, or by who else is aboard.
