Our Experiences
Sydney Harbour Private Charters
Discover the beauty of Sydney Harbour aboard our fleet of premium charter vessels.
Perfect for celebrations, corporate events, and relaxed harbour cruising, our private charters offer a unique way to experience one of the world’s most spectacular waterways.
Enjoy flexible itineraries, experienced skippers, and the freedom to create your own day on the harbour.
Hervey Bay Whale Watching Safaris
Each winter the calm waters of Hervey Bay become one of the best places in the world to encounter migrating humpback whales.
Operating under Salty Safaris, our small-group whale watching experiences bring you closer to these incredible animals with fewer passengers, faster vessels, and more time with the whales.
For adventurous guests, select tours even offer the rare opportunity to enter the water and experience whales from a truly unique perspective.
Sydney Harbour Events
Throughout the year, Sydney Harbour becomes the stage for some of Australia’s most spectacular waterfront events. From the world-famous New Year’s Eve fireworks display to the exhilarating start of the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race on Boxing Day, there is no better place to experience these iconic moments than from the water.
At Spirit Fleet, we specialise in intimate harbour experiences designed to bring you closer to the action. Rather than large crowded vessels, our small-group cruises offer a more personal and relaxed way to enjoy Sydney’s biggest harbour events.
