THE BOOKING CALENDAR IS THE TIMETABLE

The Yarra is tidal and the bay is exposed, so high tides and weather genuinely change what we can run on a given day. That means no printed timetable will ever be 100% accurate, and we’d rather be honest about it. The rule is simple: if you can book it, we’re sailing. If a date is blocked in the calendar, we’re not operating that day.

On a typical sailing day there are several departures from Southgate between late morning and mid-afternoon, with Williamstown departures roughly an hour after each city departure. Exact times for your date show in the calendar. Please check in at the ticket kiosk 15 minutes before departure.

 

Sailing Days Throughout the Year:

  • Operates everyday during Victorian Summer School Holidays
  • Operates on Fridays from February to Easter weekend
