Sydney Harbour Escapes you the ultimate romantic escape. Although the idea of spending the night on the harbour is not a new one, this business has produced a truly magical evening on board the new Seawind 1000 Sailing Catamaran. Why book a hotel suite when this fabulous vessel provides oodles of space and luxury, with the added bonus of seclusion and better than waterfront views. Once on the water, the cosmopolitan hustle and bustle of Sydney life will seem a million miles away

The evening starts with a twilight cruise and an opportunity to watch the sun disappear behind the world famous Sydney skyline. Your local skipper will ensure that you are treated to the best views that the harbour has to offer. Back in Rose Bay the water laps against the hull of the boat and the stars begin to appear as the skipper leaves you safely moored for a peaceful night.

The optional gourmet hamper is a tantalising combination of finest produce, contemporary seafood cuisine. Unlike a sailing yacht, the dining area of the boat is situated on deck to allow for fabulous 360 degree views while the hard cover still protects you from any evening breezes. Fresh flowers or your choice of alcohol can be delivered onto the boat.

If you can rouse yourself from your sleep, the sunrise on the water is a beautiful way to start the morning. Tea and coffee making facilities on the boat ensure that you can still get your caffeine fix! You are collected from the boat and taken back to the Rose Bay Marina. Perhaps join the in crowd and have breakfast on the wharf at the Marina Kiosk.

This is a fabulous way to spend a peaceful and romantic evening without a long drive into the country.

Every marriage proposal has been successful. This looks to become the ultimate way to treat your love.
