Sail Sydney's Authentic Tall Ship James Craig
Enjoy a tall ship sailing adventure off Sydney Heads on James Craig and you’ll capture heart-pounding memories lasting a lifetime! Breathtaking views and an experience you won’t forget.
A magnificent, fully restored, 3-masted, 19th Century barque, she is a living reminder to all Australians of those voyages that helped shape our heritage. Following an AUD18 million restoration, the James Craig is one of only four similar vessels in the world still sailing, and the only one regularly carrying members of the public. Not only can you admire her alongside her berth at Wharf 7, Pyrmont, but also you have the opportunity to board the James Craig for a glorious day out at sea under sail. Food included.
