Our take
This is a bar on a boat rather than a meal or a guided cruise. For 2 hours from King Street Wharf you get a welcome cocktail of your choice, one more house beer, wine or soft drink, and an Australian cheese and charcuterie board shared between two, with reserved lounge or table seating on the Ocean Deck. There is live acoustic music at weekends, and you choose a sundown, sunset or twilight sailing.
We list it on our Sydney pub crawl page as the on-the-water option for a night out. It rates around 4.3. Two drinks over two hours is a modest allowance, so expect to buy more if you want them. The boat is wheelchair accessible throughout, which is rare on harbour cruises. Check in at the ticket office opposite Wharf 1 at least 20 minutes before.
Good for
- Drinks with the Opera House at sunset, without a full dinner
- Wheelchair users
Think twice if
- You want a proper meal. See the dinner cruises
- You want a guide or a party night
