Inner Harbour ferry services connect suburbs on the foreshore of the inner Sydney Harbour with Circular Quay by commuter ferry. The services are provided by Sydney Ferries, an agency of the Government of New South Wales. These routes are coloured various shades of green on the current Sydney Ferries network map. Vessels in the First Fleet and Emerald class generally service these routes.

Current Services

The current Sydney Ferries timetable divides Inner Harbour ferry services into two sections, both operating independently.

Past Services

In October 2017 this was reorganised to become the Cross Harbour ferry services which are no longer considered part of the Inner Harbour services.
