Great value for a group of 20 to have total comfort and a fabulous front deck full view. BYO food and drinks or we can help with an extra catering order
Most NYE charters start around 6:00–7:00 PM and go past midnight, wrapping up around 1:00–1:30 AM. This gives you plenty of time to settle in, cruise the harbour, enjoy food and drinks, and celebrate both the 9PM family fireworks and the midnight extravaganza
Are food and drinks included on NYE cruises?
It depends on the boat. Some vessels include gourmet catering and drinks packages as part of the NYE charter. Others are BYO-friendly, which can be a great option for groups looking for flexibility. We'll let you know what’s available when you enquire.
How much does a New Year’s Eve cruise cost?
Due to high demand and extended hours, NYE charters are premium experiences. Prices typically start from $12,000–$18,000 for small private boats (20 to 30 guests) and can range up to $50,000+ for larger luxury vessels with all-inclusive packages. We recommend booking early as boats sell out fast!
Can we anchor near the Harbour Bridge for the fireworks?
Boats must anchor in designated exclusion zones, but don’t worry—they are chosen specifically to ensure great views of the fireworks. Your skipper knows exactly where to go to give you an unforgettable vantage point.
Is there music or entertainment on board?
Most NYE cruises include onboard sound systems so you can bring your own playlists. Some luxury vessels even offer live DJs or entertainment packages—perfect for ringing in the New Year with a party to remember!
How far in advance should I book a NYE boat?
As early as possible! NYE is Sydney’s busiest night of the year for boat hire. Many boats are booked out months in advance, especially the most popular and affordable options. Secure your spot early to avoid missing out
Is it family-friendly?
Definitely. We have boats suitable for families with kids, couples, or groups of friends. Whether you're after a relaxing evening cruise or a high-energy party, we’ll help you find the perfect vessel to celebrate in style.
