Your Private Floating Party Venue
Gather your crew and step aboard your private catamaran. Unlike crowded public bars, a Tiger Catamarans charter gives you exclusive run of the vessel. Put on your favorite tunes, enjoy your handpicked food and drinks, and take in the epic, changing views of Sydney Harbour.
Our catamarans are exceptionally stable, meaning no spilled drinks and comfortable cruising for all guests. Sunbathe on the forward trampoline nets, chat in the spacious aft cockpit, or dance inside the protected salon—the choice is yours.

What Makes the Perfect Sydney Harbour Party Cruise?
Not all party venues are equal. Here is what sets a private catamaran charter apart from every other option in Sydney:
A spacious catamaran deck — not a cramped function room. Open air, room to move, a sound system that fills the space. Tiger 3 and Tiger 4 hold up to 43 guests with room to breathe.
Sydney Harbour is not just a backdrop — it is the main event. The Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Darling Harbour. There is not a party venue in Sydney that competes with this view.
Full BYO, no bar minimums, no corkage fees. Bring exactly what your group wants to drink and eat. This is your party and we do not tell you what to have.
A professional skipper and crew are included in every charter. They look after the boat; you look after the party. Everything runs smoothly from the moment you board.
How a Party Cruise on Sydney Harbour Flows
Party Cruises Work for Every Occasion
The beauty of a private charter is that it suits almost any celebration. Here is what Tiger Catamarans party cruises are most commonly booked for:
The ultimate Sydney birthday — private boat, BYO, harbour views. Works for 21st through to milestone 50th and beyond.
End of year, team building, client entertaining. A harbour cruise beats any function room every time.
A proper send-off. A private catamaran says you actually made an effort — not just drinks at the pub.
Celebrate the newly engaged couple on the most iconic harbour in the world. BYO champagne, of course.
School reunions, family catch-ups, a group of mates that have not been together in years. The harbour is the great equaliser.
You do not need a reason to get on a boat on Sydney Harbour. Sometimes the best parties are the ones with no occasion at all.
