The boat slips away from a city of glass and light as the sun slides toward the western headlands. Salt air moves across the deck and the Opera House looms close enough to read its tiles; the Harbour Bridge throws a long, steel shadow that seems to follow the boat. On a private two-hour sunset cruise, Sydney’s waterfront changes tone in real time — gilded harbourside homes, the green sweep of Royal Botanic Garden, and the city skyline cooling into twilight.
