New Year is a special time of the year for people across the globe. It's an opportunity to leave out the negatives of the previous year and learn from the mistakes. Everyone will start to possess a wave of positivity and they welcome the New Year with high spirits. Different areas of the world have their own way of celebrating but the true essence behind such celebrations is to spend quality time with their family or friends. If you're looking to spend this New Year’s Eve at a special destination, read along.

NYE cruises, Sydney

The capital of New South Wales and one of the most luxurious cities in the world, Sydney, is a tourist hotspot with numerous attractions across its waterfront location. New Year in Sydney is an eye-catching event with innumerable festivities and celebrations spread across the city. During this period of time, the New Year’s Eve cruises are one of the most sought-after events in Sydney Harbour because they serve as the best vantage points to view the famous fireworks that will hit the skies at 9 pm and midnight. There are a variety of vessels to choose from including Sydney’s newest premium glass boat offering 360° views of the harbour, the multi-million dollar catamaran with expansive outer decks and an authentic paddlewheeler with wrap-around verandah and live entertainment. The cruises will take you through the harbour where you can feast your eyes on the well-illuminated skyline of Sydney along with its world-renowned landmarks including Opera House and Harbour Bridge. You can enjoy these stunning visuals while you savor the delicious food which can either be a deluxe seafood buffet or a five course seated and served menu. Drinks and beverages are included in this special package! The cruises are to be located in a special exclusion zone to be in pole position to view the much-awaited fireworks. The NYE cruise in Sydney Harbour arguably has the best seats to view the harbour fiestas and the NYE firework displays along with a festive dining experience and entertainment. So don’t even think twice and get your friends and family on board the NYE cruises and countdown to the New Year in style.

Bay of Fires, Tasmania

On the northeastern coast of Tasmania, exists an ocean with shallow turquoise waters and granite rocks on the banks of it. This paradisiacal Bay of Fires is covered in white sands and rock pools to go with it and remained a hidden gem until 2015 when it was named in Lonely Planet’s top ten places to visit. The sand beaches are of low population and offer the perfect opportunity for a long stretch of walk for kilometers, with you and nature or your own thoughts for company. The most magical aspect of the white sand beaches is that it is embedded with granite boulders which turn into bright orange by the touch of lichen which is a symbiotic algae. This sight of white sands, blue waters and orange hued rocks is truly a sight to behold especially for photographers. Swim in the refreshing waters ranging from secluded coves, rockpools and sparkling beaches. Be sure to remember to be safe when entering these waters as these areas are not patrolled by authorities. You may not come across many people here but there is a variety of wildlife in and around the area, mostly birds, like pelicans, sea eagles, oystercatchers and many more. Other than these, you can find the adorable quokkas and wombats, wallabies, pademelons, echidnas and so on, although these are rare sightings. So add this gem of a location to your wishlist. You can easily stay at the best hotels in Launceston, offering special NYE packages, which is the gateway to the Bay of Fires area.
