Private charters

Experience Canberra from the water with a private cruise for up to 10 guests on Lake Burley Griffin. Step aboard Cygnet, our charming electric wooden boat, complete with your own skipper, and explore everything from the tranquil Molonglo River to the scenic views near the Governor‑General’s residence.

Relax into the calm of the lake as you take in the birdlife, nature and hidden corners of Canberra that can only be seen from the water. Bring the family, pack a picnic, or even hop off to explore Springbank Island.

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, surprising someone you love, hosting a small end‑of‑year gathering or simply enjoying time with friends, our private cruises offer a unique and memorable experience. BYO or choose from our catering and beverage packages.
