The perfect way to celebrate a birthday in Sydney
As a tradition, I celebrate my birthday every year on board with Sydney Sea Cruises, and once again it was an amazing experience. We enjoyed stunning harbour views while sailing with friends, stopped at a beautiful bay for a BBQ and a swim, and relaxed the whole way. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the day even more special. I highly recommend this experience to enjoy Sydney at its very best.

Boat Party with Friends at the Sydney Harbour, what else? It says it all.
What a better way than to celebrate my birthday than organizing a boat party and the experience with Sea Sydney Harbour was excellent. Great crew taking us around the harbour and other bay spots. Cooking bbq while we were enjoying the water. My friends and I danced away on a stunning sunny day and we had so much fun. Organization was second to none and we are repeating next year for sure!

We're so glad you had a fantastic time with great food, music, and beautiful harbour views. We’d love to welcome you back next year for another unforgettable experience!

FUN IN THE SUN
Excellent Boat Crew Ty & Caelum (Mr Pringles), perfect day out in the sun & in the water with 20 of my closest friends. Ice packs provided, cups, cutlery, plates, they also cooked for us. Only thing I really wanted was the music to be louder, however speakers on the outside may cause water damage. Thanks for all the hospitality and a great time out.
Operator response

All Gals' Birthday Party on the Harbour
Friday was a truly wonderful experience onboard The Kirralee smoothly motoring around our most amazing backdrop of Sydney Harbour. Perfect weather, perfect Company, beautiful boat with a terrific crew of two. I cannot recommend this experience highly enough. From the time of booking in the back office with Ann through to hopping off the Cat at the eastern pontoon in Circular Quay this was a wonderful way to spend my Birthday. To sum it up: professional, friendly, helpful, major fun!
Operator response

Awesome Crew, Awesome Boat!
I have been out on 3/4 cruises with SSH. From sightseeing to Vivid cruises and celebrations with friends. Every time has been perfect, from booking to getting on board and the cruise itself.
The boats are lovely and always so clean and tidy and the crew cannot do enough for you.
I would highly recommend SSH to everyone.
