The Boat:
A floating open-air space which fuses European beach club culture and 5 stars service with an iconic Australian backdrop. A fully licensed bespoke bar sits alongside VIP banquettes with a contemporary white facade, ensuring the space is polished and cohesive. A venue unrivalled to any on-water location, and hospitality landscape, opening up the harbour to local and international guests.
