A one off unforgettable cultural and conservation experience.

SIMS Project Manager for Project Restore Francisco Martinez Baena will show how Sydney Harbour ecosystems are being restored today and he will be joined by special guest Aunty Rowena and the indigenous hosts and crew aboard the vessel Wirawi on Saturday, March 15, departing the Australian National Maritime Museum.
Tickets on sale now via the Ocean Lovers Festival website, include a performance on Be-lang-le-wool, known today as Clark Island, where performers will guide the audience back to pre-European settlement to discover the traditional practices for fishing and food that sustained Aboriginal communities for thousands of years.
Refreshments included on the two and half hr harbour cruise.
