Sydney Harbour - Sailing Hands-On Experience
Ahoy there, sailor! Embark on a sailing cruise and experience the magic of Sydney from the water. You'll be sailing a 24ft keelboat with our professional skippers.
Departing from Manly, you'll have the opportunity to help set the sails and steer the boat, or you can simply sit back, relax and take in the views.
Cruise past the multi-million dollar waterfront mansions of the rich and famous, discover hidden harbour beaches and revel in uninterrupted views of iconic attractions including the Sydney Opera House* and Harbour Bridge*.
Other things to note: Basic swimming skills are recommended but not necessary
Important: we will only go ahead if there are two or more participants enrolled for safety reasons. Should there not be enough participants to proceed our team will contact you and offer you an alternative date/time.
*The sites seen are weather dependant. It is not possible to sail to Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House on the short cruise.
