Sydney Sea Safari

Circular Quay, New South Wales

Few cities in the world have more wildlife on their doorstep than Sydney. Just 15 minutes by boat from the Harbour Bridge lies an array of sea creatures including fur seals, dolphins, penguins, sea eagles and migrating humpback whales. To promote Sydney’s world-class wildlife and natural beauty My Sydney Boat has launched the city’s first private sea safari adventures. Local charter operator Mark Dalgleish has been showing guests beauty spots inside the harbour for years but this is the first time anyone has offered small groups the opportunity to head offshore and explore Sydney’s wilder side. “What’s remarkable about Sydney is that you have all this nature and dramatic scenery within eyeshot of the city, yet very few people get to experience it ‘up close’. As well as the diverse marinelife that inhabits Sydney’s waters, with awesome cliffs that hold great significance to the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land, the Gayamagal people. They provide a breath-taking backdrop as you cruise along the coastline on the high-powered sports cruiser, in search of wildlife.” says Dalgleish.
