Uber Sydney is always hard at work figuring out how to make Sydney an easier city to navigate, and this Saturday from 12 to 8pm, we’re offering another solution: UberBOAT!
Between 12 and 8pm Saturday, you can use the Uber app to request a water taxi pickup in minutes.
Not sure where to go? Whether you feel like taking a cruisy 10 minute trip from Vaucluse to Mosman, spending some well-earned shore leave at one of Sydney’s premier waterfront venues, or hitting the harbour with a bottle of bubbly, Uber and our positively ship-shape array of partners will have you 3 sheets to the wind!

HOW IT WORKS
- Download the Uber app for iPhone, Android, or Blackberry
- Between 12pm – 8pm Saturday, request the “UberBOAT” option via your app. Water taxis can pick you up from any public or private dock on Sydney Harbour.
- If there is an empty boat nearby, you’ll soon see a 16 seat water taxi cruising towards you on your Uber app!
Bear in mind that availability will be very limited. Please try again if you can’t get a ride on your first request. If demand is crazy, more boats will log onto the Uber system – in fact, we might even make UberBOAT a regular feature.
FARES
An UberBOAT ride for you and up to 15 mates will cost $40 plus $3 per minute. As always, you can fare split your boat ride with your fellow able seamen and women. Sample fares:
Rose Bay - Mosman: $61
