Kimberley Cruising featuring the Coral Coast 2021

Small Ship Expedition Cruising Venture to remote destinations normally inaccessible to larger vessels. Remote Journeys Aboard a custom-built 4WD vehicle, veer off the beaten path with no more than 21 other guests.

A call to adventure. A yearning for the Australia unseen. The remote. The otherwise inaccessible. Pursuing your own idea of luxury. Nurturing curiosity. Falling in love with the world all over again. Laughing. Hiking. Leaving footprints on castaway islands. Finding shade beneath a boab tree. Tales of the Dreaming etched in rock. The crackle of a campfire. The crash of a waterfall. The echo of an ancient gorge. Being in the company of explorers, historians and naturalists. New-found friends. Fierce sunsets. Freshly caught seafood. Remembering what exhilaration feels like. Zodiac rides. Sprawling reefs. Turning tides. Feeling the ocean spray on your skin. Embracing the unknown. Being surprised. Being free. Knowing the little things have been looked after so you can live fully in each and every unforgettable moment.
