About
Traditional square-rigged tall ships offering Sydney Harbour lunch, dinner and discovery cruises, mast climbs, private charters and multi-day ocean voyages.
Service area: Sydney Harbour and offshore voyages
Sydney Harbour Tall Ships sails three traditional square-riggers from Campbell's Cove in The Rocks: Søren Larsen, a 1949 brigantine for up to 120 passengers; Southern Swan, a three-masted barquentine built in Denmark in 1922 for up to 100; and Coral Trekker, a 1939 square-rigged ketch for up to 36.
On the harbour they run lunch, dinner, afternoon discovery, brunch and wine-and-canapé cruises, along with whale watching, mast climbs, school groups, team building and weddings, and private and corporate charters are available across the fleet. The ships also make longer passages: the 2026 program sailed legs between Sydney, Portland and Port Victoria in South Australia, with guests helping to sail and climb the rig.
This is square-rig sailing rather than a private yacht charter, so it suits groups, celebrations and anyone curious about traditional seamanship. Check each cruise listing for inclusions and how much sail is likely to be set, and ask about mast-climb conditions before booking.

Plan as a chain of conservative daily legs tied to your boat’s real-world fuel and speed in the expected sea state, with confirmed primary and alternate anchorages/berths, fuel legs and back-up fuel options, and a documented emergency/diversion plan (comms, tow and med-evac). Build tidal and weather gates into each leg and carry chart and comms redundancy.

A good float plan and a well-stocked emergency kit significantly improve your chances of a safe outcome when cruising remote parts of South Australia’s coastline. The float plan should give someone ashore all the information they need to find you and raise help if you don’t return; the emergency kit should allow you to stabilise the boat, care for injuries, signal for rescue and survive until help arrives.

Expect very different seasonal systems across Western Australia: the south‑west (Perth to Albany) has a strong summer afternoon sea breeze (the “Fremantle Doctor”) and winter westerly fronts, while northern WA follows a wet/dry monsoonal cycle with strong seasonal onshore winds, thunderstorms and cyclone risk in the wet season. Local headlands, estuaries and tidal flows often change what you actually feel on the water, so learn the local timing and sheltered venues first.

Plan passages across Spencer Gulf or to Kangaroo Island by basing fuel on your boat’s actual consumption plus a generous reserve, choosing sensible staging/stop options that match your boat and crew, and prioritising shelter and weather windows (gale fronts, strong winds and tidal streams can make the gulf uncomfortable or unsafe). Confirm fuel availability, safe anchorages or marinas on your route, and check up-to-date local weather, tide and navigation information before you go.
