Ahoy! It’s a Pirate Cruise!

by Lauren on April 20th, 2008

Cruising around Sydney Harbour is great fun for mums and dads, but it tends to send the kids straight to sleep.Pirate boy

But it doesn’t have to be just another boring outing thanks to the Sydney Harbour Pirate Cruise! This brilliant idea is designed to give everyone a day out they’ll really enjoy.

It all takes place to the stunning tall ship Svanen. It certainly looks the part, especially since littlies are encouraged to dress as pirates and mermaids. But make sure you leave your weapons at home or the captain will make you walk the plank!

During the two-hour cruise you’ll learn all about the Svanen’s colorful history and take part in the sailing experience. You can hoist the sails and enjoy other fun activities.

A special pirate lunch is also included in the price. Kids can enjoy soft drinks, juices, and water, and wine and beer is available for the grownups.

Bookings are essential, so call 1300 66 44 10 to reserve your place.
