Romance & Sailing on Sydney Harbour

In the post-Covid era, we have had to find new ways to enjoy leisure time. We have designed our Romantic Overnight B&Bs to perfectly suit the Sydney-sider couple who are looking for a new adventure. 

Begin your experience with a private twilight sail, as a skipper takes you around Sydney Harbour and shows you the ropes. The skipper then anchors you in a sheltered bay and departs the yacht, leaving you two alone onboard with gourmet dinner and your BYO beverages.

2021 is well underway and the summer is in full-swing, what better time to get that course you have always been wanting to do on your calendar. 

 Before engaging in a sailing course in Australia, always be sure that the school is fully accredited with International Yacht Training Worldwide.

We all love Sydney Harbour in its modern form, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Sydney Opera HouseOpera House, Darling Harbour....

But have you ever wondered what it was like back in the day?

Well in 1875, mining magnate Bernhardt Otto Holtermann created a series of glassplate photographic negatives.

Holtermann, who made his fortune in the goldfields around Hill End, was best known as being co-owner of the 'world's largest gold "nugget"'.
