Where do we visit on Sydney Harbour?
Pick up and drop off is alongside the Park Hyatt Hotel at Campbells Cove Pontoon. The route for the day really depends on those passengers on board and is of course dependent on the weather. You tell us what you want to do and we will try to accommodate your needs. Cruising is restricted however to Sydney Harbour. Generally we would suggest motoring along the spectacular shores of the harbour, providing breathtaking views of the city and the eastern suburbs prior to dropping anchor at Taronga Zoo or near Manly at the delightful Quarantine beach.
How many people will be on the boat?
Sea Sydney Cruises guarantees daily departures with a minimum of two people, maximum of ten. Groups and exclusive bookings, maximum 38 passengers.
Our 'Cruise like a local tour' operates from 1st September through 1st June. Groups and exclusive charters are available year round.
Can I hire the boat for special events like Australia Day, Boxing Day, and New Years Eve?
Absolutely. Calypso is available for exclusive charter throughout its operating season. Group bookings or private charters can be made over the website or phone/fax and are dependent on availability. Start planning today if you want to see in the New Year from the best vantage point.
Calypso is very spacious and 52' in length. In fact, if you include the swim platform it is over 57'! There is seating on the aft (back) of the boat for ten, a saloon area with a full bar, complete galley, and two staterooms with ensuites. The bow of the boat is very spacious and holds 15 people comfortably and has a stunning sunpad.
How many staff will be on the boat?
Sea Sydney Cruises takes safety seriously and is one of our main concerns. A qualified skipper will always be in command of Calypso and we hire qualified and personable deckhands. There will always be two staff on board for all events.
Bookings can be made online, by phone (+61 2 9440 5889) or by fax (+61 2 9144 1431). The easiest and simplest way is through this website, with a secure credit-card payment.
What happens if it is raining on the day?
Calypso cruises no matter what the weather is like. Why? Because the boat is very stable and offers all round protection from the elements. However, we do have a 48 hour cancellation policy and would be only too happy to re-schedule your booking.
What should I bring for my day on Sydney Harbour?
Dress as you would for a day at the beach or a day boating. Sensible, sturdy shoes are recommended, sunglasses, a hat and clothes for both warm and cooler weather. Swim suit is a must, towels and sunscreen. Sydney Harbour truly is one of the most beautiful harbours in the world so don't forget your camera or video.
That's the great thing about Calypso. Because of its size and spaciousness, anyone can enjoy this experience, no matter what your age. We've had passengers of all ages ranging from young children to the elderly. The boat is very stable and easy to move around, with steps, guards and hand rails.
