Circular Quay, ferry

This ferry has just arrived at a Circular Quay ferry wharf, with the Sydney Opera House in the background. The Golden Grove is a First Fleet Class ferry, acquired by Sydney Ferries in 1986 and is part of the fleet that operates on the Inner Harbour. It was named Golden Grove, after the one of eleven ships of the First Fleet that sailed to Australia in 1787.

    As long as the harbour is not very rough, travelling by ferry would be a real pleasure.

    A cute looking ferry boat. It seems like something from the 19th century, which contrasts nicely with the modern buildings.

    Love the Sydney ferries. Great way to see the harbour and of course to get to places without the hassle of Sydney traffic.
