Birthday parties & private celebrations
Gather your favourite people for a birthday, an anniversary or a long-overdue catch-up. The private charter keeps everyone in one place, with space for a meal, music and harbour views. Discuss your plans before booking, including any decorations, cake or special requests.
Choose whether you want the afternoon to centre on sightseeing or a slower bay stop. BYO lets you shape the food and drinks around the group, while catering can reduce the preparation you need to do.
Family cruises & relaxed lunches
A family outing can be as simple as lunch together with Sydney in view. Tell us who is coming, including children’s ages and any mobility needs, so we can discuss the vessel and boarding arrangements. A manageable itinerary leaves time to enjoy the boat itself.
If swimming is a priority, mention it when enquiring. The crew can plan with that preference in mind, but the actual stop depends on suitable conditions and the skipper’s assessment.
Corporate events & Christmas gatherings
Take colleagues or clients out of the office for a shared harbour experience. Life’s Good accommodates up to 25 guests, making it an option for a smaller team gathering or client occasion. Tell us whether the event is informal, hosted or part of a wider schedule.
Food choices, departure times and pickup arrangements should be confirmed early, particularly if guests are arriving from different offices. Catering availability and any special requirements are checked for the booking.
Sunset sightseeing & visiting guests
An afternoon-to-evening cruise can put the city waterfront at the centre of the occasion. Ask about a departure time that suits daylight sightseeing or an evening atmosphere. Weather, seasonal light and the agreed itinerary shape what you will see.
For visiting guests, choose a few priorities such as the Opera House, Harbour Bridge or a particular bay. We can discuss a practical route rather than trying to fit the whole harbour into one charter.
Build the package around your group
The quote is tailored to your date, charter length, guests, wharves and food arrangements. Life’s Good offers BYO food and drinks or catering, an onboard BBQ and a sound system. Confirm what is included and what is an extra in the written booking details.
Send us your preferred date, approximate guest count and occasion. Add the locations you would like to see, then let us help balance the route with the time you want for eating, socialising or swimming.
Choose a service by the experience you want
A birthday, a client lunch and a sunset gathering can use the same boat in different ways. Start with the priority: a meal together, iconic sightseeing, informal networking or a celebration. Choose a small number of route preferences and leave time for the onboard experience. A private charter is not improved simply by adding more destinations.
Our detailed occasion guides help you think through invitations, menus, music and logistics. The planning guide compares landmark, northern-shore and eastern-harbour route ideas. Use them to prepare a clear brief, then ask the team to check what works for your date and departure wharf.
What we need to tailor your charter
Send the preferred date, likely attendance, desired duration and event type. Explain whether you want BYO, catering or a BBQ, and identify any children, dietary requirements or boarding needs. If your outing connects to another event, share the timing requirements so the return arrangements can be discussed.
Your written quote should distinguish the charter from optional extras and confirm inclusions, wharves and booking terms. Shore visits, fixed photographic positions and swimming are not assumed inclusions. The skipper may adapt the route and stops. Confirm the practical details first, then keep the guest-facing plan simple and enjoyable.
