Super easy, super fun! Very safe and loved the experience :)
We did a 2 hour ride and had a little picnic, not choppy even for someone like me who tends to get seasick pretty easily! Highly recommend this experience and especially when the weather is gorgeous 🌟
The sign in process was so quick and efficient.
Very unique experience. The staff were super helpful and cheerful throughout the whole experience. Will definitely do this again!

Beautiful day on the water!
Brad was an exceptional host, we are running slightly late on our return and he was very accommodating. Had the best day. Thank you. Go boat on the spit. Wie will definitely be coming back.
I cannot recommend Go Boat at The Spit, Mosman enough — this was hands down one of the best days I've had in Sydney!
NO boat licence needed, you get a quick safety briefing, and suddenly you're the captain of your own gorgeous electric picnic boat cruising across Middle Harbour! The views are absolutely stunning — sparkling water, incredible waterfront mansions, and the Sydney skyline in the distance. You can bring your own food and drinks too, so we packed cheese, crackers, and drinks. The staff were lovely, the boats are clean and easy to drive, and it's perfect for couples, families, or a fun day out with friends. Do yourself a favour and book the late afternoon slot for sunset — you'll thank me later!
I had an amazing time on the GoBoat!
The check-in process was quick, and the staff explained everything clearly. Steering the boat was simple even as a first-timer, and the ride felt calm and safe. Loved being able to bring snacks and enjoy the views at our own pace. Definitely recommend for a relaxing outing with friends!
