Budget-Friendly Australia Day Cruises On Sydney Harbour

Amp up your Australia Day celebrations on January 26th. Head to Sydney Harbour, the heart of all the action. Magistic Cruises offers two spectator cruises for you to experience the excitement of the daytime and nighttime events on the harbour.

Enjoy prime views of day time events like the Harbour Parade, Midday Salute, the all new Air Force Roulettes, Ferrython, Maritime Mayhem, Tall Ships Race & the 188th Australia Day Regatta aboard the Magistic Australia Day cruise.

On the other hand, the Australia Day evening fireworks cruise aboard the Magistic treats you to the grand ‘Australia Day Live’ event – an energetic land and water concert, which includes the Lit Vessels Parade, featuring vessels rigged with neon rope lights. Projections on the sails of the Opera House and the grand fireworks display over Sydney Harbour also are stunning visual treats that are best experienced on our evening cruise.

Our cruise packages don’t include meals, but BYO food is allowed on board. We do have a licensed bar on board, where drinks of your choice can be purchased. So depending on your convenience, choose either of the two Magistic Australia Day cruises, or even better, experience both!
