The Cruise
Enjoy the scenic backdrop of the best of Melbourne’s sights as you party the night away with colleagues, friends or family.
Your guests arrive at Docklands for a 7:00pm boarding, allowing everyone to grab a drink and get into the festive spirit. At 7:30pm we set sail, departing from Docklands and cruising down river under the Bolte and Westgate bridges to watch the sun set over Williamstown. We then head to Station Pier and on to Web Dock to view the large container ships, followed by a scenic voyage to St Kilda (weather permitting) to take in in the breathtaking views of the Melbourne city skyline.
From here we return back to our departure point where your group are invited to continue on to the after party at a venue in Melbourne’s CBD.
