A true Sydney 'Swan' returns to celebrate Australia Day

Sydney's only authentic timber tall ship - Svanen - has just completed a major refit under the watchful eyes of a new ownership and management team and is available for BBQ Lunch Cruises, Twilight Cruises, charters and for special events including the forthcoming Australia Day.

An oak three-masted Barquentine, Svanen (meaning 'Swan') is originally from Denmark and is of great cultural significance to Sydney as she served as flagship of the Bicentennial First Fleet re-enactment voyage from Plymouth, UK in 1988. She is now the last of the ships to remain on Sydney Harbour.

For more information on hiring the vessel, visit www.sydneytallships.com.au
