Amazing day exploring the reef around the island which was so much more impressive than expected! The lunch alone was worth the trip and highly recommend this experience for anyone wanting to get out and see the reef without the crowds.

Loved this experience. The captain/owner could not have been more enthusiastic, warm and friendly. We caught fish, saw dolphins, fed osprey by hand and had fun snorkeling as well. Definitely worth it!

Had the most amazing experience twilight racing on Sydney Harbour with Pilgrim Sailing. Paul and Clare go above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. Will definitely go sailing with them again.

This is a fantastic opportunity to do something off the tourist circuit in Sydney that is very unique. We did the Wednesday, Twilight Racing Trip which allowed us the opportunity to actually experience sailing in a racing environment. What a great hands-on experience! This allowed not only the benefit of enjoying a sailing trip, but actually getting involved with the very mechanics of sailing. Expect to move around a lot, and if lucky enough actually break a sweat! We had never been sailing before and this totally won us over. If your are comfortable in an active environment this is definitely for you. If not, enjoy the many other more low key scenic tours they offer. Oh by the way, the owners and crew were unbelievably welcoming and friendly. This is a must do if you want to truly enjoy the Sydney harbour.

I didn't think Sydney harbour could get anymore amazing, but then I tried Pilgrim sailing! Twilight racing is just the right mix of exhilaration, sightseeing and relaxation. Clare, Paul and their crew are extremely welcoming and even let beginners have a go at actual sailing. Definitely a unique way to experience Sydney Harbour.
