Get settled, explore the ship, then gather for a welcome briefing and sunset drinks as we begin navigating toward the Kimberley coast.
Cruise Highlights
King George River and Falls (Oomari Falls)
Cruise through Gardner Plateau gorges into the mist spray of the dramatic King George Falls, Western Australia’s tallest twin waterfalls. Depending on the season, experience up-close views of honeycomb sandstone formations or thundering waterfalls in the earlier months, in our Xplorer tenders.
Vansittart Bay (Banjal)
Explore Vansittart Bay’s ancient Gwion Gwion rock art galleries and visit Jar Island’s Makassan pottery shards. From the Anjo Peninsula, view the preserved C-53 Skytrooper aircraft wreck, grounded in 1942 and now a haunting historical site reflecting wartime aviation mystery.
Mitchell Falls / Swift Bay
Enjoy helicopter (optional extra) access to Mitchell Falls amid tiered waterfalls and emerald pools, or explore Swift Bay’s cave labyrinth of sandstone tunnels, home to Wandjina and Gwion rock art galleries, before an evening BBQ under the Kimberley’s iconic sunset.
Prince Frederick Harbour and Bigge Island (Wuuyuru)
Cruise into Porosus Creek up Prince Regent River to explore mangrove-lined waterways with sea eagles and mudskippers. Visit Bigge Island (Wuuyuru) to learn about Wunambal culture among monsoon forests, mudflats and coastal ecosystems.
Prince Regent River
Traverse down the straight fault-line of the Prince Regent River by tender to reach King Cascade. From Xplorers’ view, cascading layered falls and lush vegetation, framed by dramatic sandstone walls, rush into the river below.
Careening Bay
Step ashore in Careening Bay to see the historic Mermaid Boab Tree, carved by Lt. King’s carpenter in 1820. Learn the story of HMC Mermaid and explore coastal forests beside pristine ocean waters in this evocative Kimberley bay.
Montgomery Reef (Yowjab)
With 11-metre tides, Montgomery Reef emerges dramatically at low tide. Explore by tender through cascading rock pools and riffles filled with marine life. Watch birds, turtles, dolphins and dugongs feed in this shifting reef ecosystem spectacle.

Discover Doubtful Bay’s remote beauty, hike to Ruby Falls at Red Cone Creek and navigate rock formations to crystal freshwater pools. Enjoy light bushwalking and scenic swimming in a tranquil setting on this secluded stretch.
Horizontal Falls (Lalang-garram) and Buccaneer Archipelago
Witness the rushing waters of Horizontal Falls on Zodiac tenders, classed among the most incredible natural wonders. Then cruise the rugged Buccaneer Archipelago, visiting the Iron Islands and Nares Point before enjoying sunset drinks aboard the ship.
The Lacepede Islands
If tides and weather permit, explore the Lacepede Islands, a Class‑A nature reserve. Witness seabird rookeries, green turtle nesting zones, and glide through coastal lagoons aboard our tenders for an immersive wildlife experience.
Day 11: Arrive in Broome (or Darwin)
Arrive in Broome at 8:00 am or Darwin at 9:00 am and disembark. Transfers to hotels or the airport are included. Extend your journey to explore Cable Beach, Chinatown, Darwin‘s waterfront or the Wave Pool at your leisure.
