Sailing trips and a romantic overnight stay can be a wonderful option for couples seeking a romantic weekend getaway.

It may be difficult to spend quality time with your significant other during the week. Therefore, you should take time to plan special date nights in the best way possible. Taking a mini-yacht vacation serves as an excellent opportunity to unwind together and forget about the pressures of city life. A romantic getaway for couples, Sydney Harbour and its magnificent views are the ideal setting for a wide range of activities.

A sailing trip with your partner should be a time to unwind, unburden, and simply enjoy each other’s company without any worries or concerns. When you book one of Sydney by Sail’s sailing packages for couples, our seasoned skipper will see to your every need, to and from your anchorage – no previous sailing experience necessary.

All you need to do is just bring an overnight bag stocked with the essentials (toiletries, clean underwear, a change of clothes, your favourite shoes, some tunes, and any alcoholic beverages you wish to enjoy). We have gourmet food platters for Dinner & Breakfast included for you, of course!

Where to go for a romantic Weekend Getaway 

The stunning Sydney Harbour is the perfect destination for your romantic weekend getaway. 

Set sail on Sydney Harbour with Sydney By Sail. You can either experience sailing the yacht by taking the helm and learning the ropes – or simply sit back and relax as your skipper guides you around the sights and sounds of historic Sydney harbour. 

Since getting on a yacht is like taking a mini-vacation all by itself, there are a plethora of things to think about, such as what to bring and what to pack for the ship. Because of this, here are some tips to make the most of your sailing trip!

Eating the right meals

An important aspect of any successful romantic getaway is the food. After a long day, it would be nice to relax and unwind by eating dinner together while chatting about the day’s events and watching the sun go down over the harbour. 

With Sydney by Sail’s expertly-designed catering menu, you will surely be in for a treat! Our packages include gourmet catering, with share platters of cheese & fruits, seafood, vegetarian antipasto or provincial meats, lunch boxes of classic healthy meals or international dishes such as a Mediterranean feast, a variety of delicious salads, choices of delectable breakfast boxes, and more! We also provide vegan and vegetarian food options to suit all your dietary needs. 

You can check out all of the delicious menu items we offer here. 

If you prefer to bring your own food, we’ve got you covered! Sydney By Sail’s yachts are also fully equipped with a stovetop and oven, as well as utensils, plates, and bowls.

If either you or your partner tend to become seasick, you should simply take some preventative medication. 

Leave room for the unexpected

While it’s always best to be prepared, it’s also important to accept that we may not always be able to prevent every unforeseen event. Boarding could be delayed, for example, if you are running late. 

In terms of weather conditions, rest assured that Sydney by Sail will never send you out in weather that is considered dangerous, such as really strong winds or thunderstorms. If there were some showers forecast on the day of departure, the experience will still continue, but you could get a free upgrade to a larger boat or we could arrange an early start or late finish for you. Nonetheless, as you are spending the evening on a state of the art luxury yacht, having some light showers during the experience only makes things more cosy and comfortable as you are lazing below decks.

Being adaptable might help you have a good time with your partner regardless of what comes your way! 

Keeping it simple

Last but not least, the phrase “less is more” also applies here. A romantic getaway is all about you and your significant other. The yacht’s harbour makes for a stunning photographic backdrop, and the yacht’s tranquil environment is perfect for striking up conversations with each other. 

Another piece of sound advice is to put away your electronic gadgets for the day so that you can focus on each other. Reconnect with one another and make up for any missed time in your busy schedules by taking a break on our luxury romantic b&b packages. 

What to do on a romantic getaway? 

When you sail with us, we will use our 27+ years of experience sharing Sydney Harbour by sailing boat to make your experience unique and unforgettable.
