Everyone I spoke to on the day post the sailing and then when back in the office LOVED it. I was really nervous about how this would be received as we kept it a secret until they jumped off the water taxis, but everyone said it was such a great idea and they thoroughly enjoyed sailing on the harbour.

I had a fabulous time on the yacht with my friend, we spent the afternoon sailing around Sydney Harbour it was beautiful!
I love that you can do as much or as little as you’d like. It’s a great way to relax and have some fun or to get introduced to the sailing world 🧜🏻‍♀️⛵️
I loved it so much that I signed up for their Introduction to Yachting course and then their competent crew!!
One of the best things I’ve done since moving to Australia 😊 friendly and professional crew.
Don’t hesitate!

June 23rd celebrated my wife's 50th on board Impression 45.1. Sydney Harbour turned an absolute cracking day, a nice steady sail, our Skipper Sam was brilliant, his knowledge astounding. We followed by dropping anchor in Balls Head Bay for the evening. The food presented to us was absolutely first class, and to be able to enjoy it in such tranquil surroundings iced the cake. The boat itself was excellent, every comfort you could wish for on such a trip. We will be back without doubt.

Another great day on the harbour! It’s my second time I booked with Sydney by sail in 3month😅 I can’t get enough! I’m hooked ⛵️ And lucky us we got the same skipper i was sailing before. James the Skipper told me about all the great learn-to-sail courses you can book with Sydney by sail. I will Definitely have a closer look on their website. Watch out to all the sailors out there here I come ⛵️ 🤣🤣

I had booked the Romantic B&B package and organised a surprise proposal to my Girlfriend. Josh and Ed were incredibly helpful, flexible and accommodating to work with Inlight Studios to set up the perfect marriage proposal on the Sydney by Sail jetty, which included light up letters, red carpet and a few props.
The proposal was perfect. This was followed by a magical sail around the harbour with the skipper (Mike), who again was really easy going and consulted us on where we would like to sail.
I would highly recommend Sydney By Sail, their boats are really well maintained and run an extremely

On a recent visit to Sydney, I booked one of your yachts for an afternoon out with friends. We were on the beautiful Balu yacht and we were blown away by how gorgeous and luxurious she was. The skipper, Josh, was so friendly and professional and showed off the gorgeous harbour to perfection. We had ordered catering through the company and loved all of it. The sailing was so much fun, and we loved dropping anchor in a quiet bay so lunch and a swim. Everything ran so smoothly. I will be booking again next time I come down to Sydney. Cannot recommend this company highly enough. Just brilliant!

We recently celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary on the Platnimum B&B package and had loved every minute of it. Our skipper Mike took us on a 3-hour sail before anchoring us safely in Berry's Bay for the night. Mike returned the next morning at about 10am to take us back to civilisation.
The yacht is spacious and extremely well appointed and Sydney By Sail run a really professional operation. If you are looking for something romantic to do in Sydney this is really hard to beat!

We chartered one of Sydney by Sail's beautiful yachts for my Dad's birthday. It was a wonderful family day out and a lot of fun. The skipper gave us the freedom to choose where we wanted to go whilst giving great advice and pointing out iconic landmarks. They taught us lots about sailing and made us each feel comfortable whilst on board. Would definitely recommend for any birthdays, events or just a great day out in Sydney!
