Getting there
Where you meet her
Frankie departs from Double Bay, which has parking nearby and a ferry service if you’d rather not drive. We meet you at the boat, run through the controls, the harbour map and the safety gear, and stay with you until you’re comfortable.
The whole of Sydney Harbour is open to you — you just can’t head outside Sydney Heads.
