After our cruise experience with you we have put this boat on the top of our list and have told our friends of the wonderful experience. We could not fault the event and the layout of this boat is exceptional! Congratulations to the owners, organisers and crew of this wonderful boat.

Australia Day on your boat was the best experience on the harbour since the 1988 Bicentenary. Many times I have considered doing a harbour tour on Australia Day but have never failed to commit. This year I had cousins visiting from Italy for the first time in their life and it seemed like the right thing to do. Given the wide range of choices I am so glad I chose the Glass Boat for them and for my own experience. Everything about the day was perfect. The limited the number of people, no children resulted in a good group of similar minded people all enjoying a great day. We will definitely come again, this year I had 6 people next year I am planning two tables of 8 as I cannot stop telling my friends and other family members what a great experience the day was. Thanks to All the crew

True blue australia day celebrations On sydney harbour

Experience a visual treat like no other with Clearview’s special Australia Day cruises on Sydney Harbour that offer spectacular views of about six exciting harbour events. Commemorating the arrival of the first fleet from Britain, Australia Day holds a special place in the heart of every Australian.

Get spectacular views of major Australia Day special harbour events like the Tug and Yacht Ballet and also appreciate the vibrant tunes played by the Cruising Concerts. Cruise alongside the colourful Australia Day Ferrython and watch the spectacular RAAF fly over and a whole lot more!

That’s not all, though! Enjoy watching tall ships dressed in the colours of Australia during the Harbour Parade. Or get blown away by the art of sailing, displayed by the young and old alike, during the Tall Ships’ race and the Regatta.

After you have had your fill of water events, look skywards for the next event and see the beautiful air display by Red Berets and Russian Roolettes.

Join in the spirit of Australia Day with Clearview Cruises!
