Our specially designed tourism catamaran Kuru, provides an enjoyable way to experience Darwin harbour. This unique harbour experience allows you to sit back and enjoy cool sea breezes, precious time with family, friends, work colleagues and your work clients.

Some on the harbour say they sail, we actually do! Our harbour route is governed by the wind as well as the strong tides experienced in the harbour. Obviously if there is no wind we cannot sail. This happens occasionally. 

 

Connect

A great venue to connect with your family, friends or work colleagues.
