A truly wonderful way to see Sydney

5.00We have been in Sydney over Christmas and this was hands down the most magical experience. Southwinds is a beautiful yacht and the views of the harbour were breathtaking. Finn, Hannah who crewed the yacht and Nicola who took us out on the rib were all fantastic and I cannot recommend this experience highly enough. Thank you
Fantastic Private Sailing on the Southwinds

5.00We chartered the Southwinds for our family of four adults for a two hour sail in Sydney Harbor. This ended up being an absolute highlight of our trip to Australia! Thank you, Finn! The private charter was arranged through the Capella Hotel in Sydney, who did a wonderful job of arranging the trip and coordinating the details. While they offered several variations for the sailing, we opted for the two hour trip that included champagne and charcuterie. Finn, the skipper, had a helper (Bella), who saw to our every need during the trip—-music, snacks, taking a turn at the helm; they were wonderful and extremely friendly. The boat itself was very nice—-so well maintained and luxurious. The views from the water were extraordinary. And we were very happy with the time we had; we departed from the Darling Harbor side of the Sydney bridge, broke out the sails halfway up the harbor, then sailed nearly to Shark Beach and turned around for the trip back. Can’t say enough about this very positive and fun experience!
Sydney Harbour Cruise in Style

5.00We had a lovely 4 hour winter cruise around Sydney harbour on classic sailing yacht Southwinds with 3 families, incl some teenagers. It was the perfect way to get up close with some of the famous landmarks, and explore the various bays around the harbour at a leisurely pace. We were picked up from the wharf in front of our accommodation which was an ideal start. A tender shuttled us to Southwinds. The skipper and his crew made us feel very welcome. We had chosen to 'self-cater' and our wines and nibbles were served in style, making for lovely sundowner drinks. It was a calm day with hardly any wind, but that did not bother us. It made for a very comfortable cruise with great photo opportunities and we even had some playful dolphins on the bow. Very memorable experience for our family. We hope to be back in board in the future.
