Aquarium ferry wharf Aquarium ferry wharf (also known as Darling Harbour Aquarium ferry wharf) is a commuter wharf which services the Darling Harbour precinct and the Sea Life Sydney Aquarium, which is situated directly next to the wharf itself. The wharf, built in the 1980s as part of an initiative to deliver transport services to the then-newly redeveloped Darling Harbour, was originally part of the Sydney Ferries network. The wharf served as the terminus of Darling Harbour ferry services, until the wharf was decommissioned by Sydney Ferries in October 2010, when services to the wharf were rerouted to King Street Wharf 3 instead. Bass & Flinders Cruises currently handles services to the wharf, which acts as a terminus for Bass & Flinders' Sydney Harbour Eco Hopper services.
