Current Private Ferries Fares

We have advised Transport for NSW of maximum fares for private ferries for 2025 in accordance with our December 2021 determination.

Our determination includes a fuel adjustment mechanism for all ferry operators, which is triggered if fuel costs change by more than 10% in a year. 

This year, we found that diesel prices decreased by 3% in the 12 months to September 2024. As this is less than the 10% threshold, the fuel adjustment has not been triggered.

Our December 2021 determination also included a CPI adjustment each year for the Brooklyn, Central Coast, Church Point, Clarence River and Cronulla and National Park Ferry services. We have calculated that the change in the CPI applicable to updating the current maximum fare is 2.9%, based on the quarter-on-quarter change in the CPI as at September 2023.

Ferry operators can choose to set their fare below the maximum fare. To obtain actual fares for different services you should contact the ferry operator directly.
