The Mother's Day Sunset Dinner cruise is perfectly timed for a spectacular Sydney Autumnal Sunset at 5.05pm. We like to think of our Harbour as a sunset painting in progress where the magical colours of Sydney’s iconic landscape change by the season and minute. A perfect venue for family groups and couples and a great way to end a fabulous day in Sydney this Mother's Day.
A spectacular Sydney sunset just for Mum
