This is an amazingly powerful sculpture that will resonate with all sailors as well as those who know men who were in the service that risked their lives to bring supplies to the Allies in WWII. Wonderfully crafted, even if long overdue. A great addition to Sydney and the harbor. Capt. C. Townsend

Sebastian Kluth

Merchant Mariner Monument is a stunning monument dedicated to those lost at sea during numerous wars. The monument looks dramatic yet heroic. It's best visited at night when it"s lit by the moonlight reflected in the water.

Bunsen L.

Magnificent structure, beautiful scenery.

Carl Johengen

Definitely worth a visit if you are on the boardwalk. Powerful.

Kenneth Carmichael

A beautiful monument to remember our history and those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Erected in 2016, this remembers the sailors who perished on the convoys leaving from Sydney Harbour. Worth a look and a read

A touching tribute to the merchant mariners who made a tremendous contribution during the Second World War by sending convoys of ships to Europe with vital supplies such as coal, steel, fuel, and other items vital to the war effort. A total of 177 convoys with an average of 14 ships each sailed from Sydney during the battle of the Atlantic. Many ships, and lives, were lost but many more were saved with thanks to the merchant mariners. For those with wheelchairs, rollators, or those pushing prams/baby buggies, this statue is just along the boardwalk which is flat and level: accessible parking is available at the cruise pavilion. Public restrooms are also available in the cruise pavilion.

Built to honor the sacrifice's made by member's of the Merchant Marine who played a very large part in the transfer of both soldiers and war materials from Canada to Europe during the Second World War. The Port of Sydney was well defended during those years with a submarine "net" stretched along the entrance as well as land based fortifications surrounding the coastline. Most of those can still be found as you travel along the coast with the most notable being Fort Petrie. The Fort is now being re-constructed as a museum itself.
