The White Bay Cruise Terminal is a terminal for cruise ships on Sydney Harbour. The terminal is located at the eastern end of the White Bay wharves, on the northern shore of White Bay. It opened on 15 April 2013 as a replacement for Wharf 8 on Darling Harbour which closed to make way for the Barangaroo development.^[1]^[2]^[3]

White Bay handles all domestic cruise operations. The Overseas Passenger Terminal meanwhile handles all International cruise liners.

The terminal building was constructed within and amongst a twin-beam gantry structure originally constructed in the 1960s for gantry cranes for container use. In October 2013 it won the transport section at the World Architecture Festival.^[4] The Overseas Passenger Terminal remains as Sydney's primary terminal, with the White Bay Cruise Terminal only taking those vessels which can fit under the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

When the terminal is occupied, Captain Cook Cruises operate a ferry service to Barangaroo.^[5]^[6]

A 2017 study into implementing shore power at the White Bay Cruise Terminal estimated the implementation cost to be $36 million causing the NSW State Government to rule out implementing it.^[7] On 21 March 2022 it was announced that approximately $60 million would be spent to enable shore power at the terminal from 2024.^[8]

A free shuttle bus connects cruise passengers to the nearby Sydney CBD and Circular Quay.
