Starship Sydney and Starship Aqua

Starship Sydney, a glass charter vessel on Sydney Harbour
Starship Sydney. Its sister vessel is Starship Aqua.

Starship Sydney and Starship Aqua are two glass vessels that operate charters on Sydney Harbour from King Street Wharf 4. Both are private charter boats rather than ticketed daily sightseeing cruises, so the vessel is booked as a venue for a single event and the itinerary is built around it.

What Starship runs

The operator describes more than thirty years of experience running events on the harbour, and takes four broad kinds of booking:

  • Corporate charter, sold on view, space and comfort.
  • Private and social, from school formals through to milestone birthday dinners.
  • Weddings on Sydney Harbour.
  • Ticketed events, where individual seats are sold rather than the whole boat.

Because these are charters, there is no fixed published timetable. Dates, catering and running times are agreed with the operator when the booking is made.

Contact and location

Getting here

Starship boards from King Street Wharf 4. King Street Wharf sits on the western edge of Sydney city centre, a short walk from Wynyard station. Our getting here guide covers the walking routes, and the parking page covers the nearby stations and car parks if you are driving. The wharves guide explains how the numbered berths are laid out, which is worth a look before you arrive, because the cruise operators along the promenade board from different wharves.

Other cruises from King Street Wharf

If you are after a ticketed cruise rather than a private charter, Sydney Showboats, Magistic and Clearview all sell individual seats from the same promenade. Flagship Cruises is the other charter agency here.

If a private charter is more boat than you need, compare the ticketed cruises from King Street Wharf.
