Widely considered the most gorgeous natural harbour in the world, the Sydney Harbour is a must see… and you get the best views of it when you are on it! Explore the waters on a luxury sailboat and marvel at the harbour’s many famous sites. Along its 240km of shoreline, you will see a beautiful blend of beaches, parklands and gardens and built icons, such as the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, luxury homes and heritage buildings.
Sailing the stunning Sydney Harbour is undoubtedly one of the most enjoyable ways to discover the area’s highlights. As Sydney By Sail offers a variety of trips, when and how you sail the harbour is up to you; afternoon, twilight and overnight cruises all offer unique experiences.
One of the most popular is a three-hour afternoon sailing experience. Departing the 
National Maritime Museum in Darling Harbour at 1pm, you can either spend your hours on board relaxing and taking in the sights or joining the crew! If you’re interested in a hands-on experience, the friendly skipper will teach you the fundamentals of sailing, so you can have a try on the helm and trim the sails!
You are also given the options to help man the ship or to sit back and relax on the Friday twilight sails. This two-hour cruise enables you to enjoy three perspectives of the Sydney Harbour and the city’s skyline. When you depart at 5:30pm, the harbour is lit brightly by the sun, allowing you to see all it has to offer; soon after, the setting sun fills the skies with colour and shines warm hues on the scene; later, once the natural light is gone, the Sydney skyline becomes illuminated by the city lights. This cruise is the perfect kick-start to your weekend! Right now, take advantage of the limited time buy-one-get-one-half-price hot deal on these cruises!
Lastly, all you true romantics out there, you may enjoy a bed and breakfast experience on the sea! Board a luxurious yacht for an evening of intimate indulgence. Enjoy the breeze and the lapping of the water, as well as the views of the lit Sydney Harbour, before anchoring on a secluded island; there, you will indulge in a gourmet dinner and spend the evening together. There is no better way to say I love you!
Choose any of these sailing trips and you will be aboard a state-of-the-art Hunter yacht. Boasting the newest fleet in Australia, Sydney by Sail’s entire fleet is under 12 months old. So, pack your cameras, bring a bottle of bubbly (BYO is welcomed) and explore the approximate 54 square kilometres of beautiful water in the harbour in comfort on a luxury yacht!
