Book now to secure your 2024 Reef Prince Kimberley Cruise.
With Kimberley cruises already nearing capacity for the 2023 season, some of our favourite operators are now busily releasing their 2024 schedules. One of our most popular Kimberley small ships is the stylish 36-passenger Reef Prince, and you can now reserve your place for 2024. This vessel’s ‘State Class’ and ‘Class 1’ cabins are always incredibly popular, so you will need to get in early to secure one of these highly sought-after cabins.
Perhaps the first thing you will notice about Reef Prince’s 2024 schedule is that the cruise duration has been extended from 11 to 12 days – with the extra day to be spent exploring the magnificent Berkeley River in the northern Kimberley, which is also a great spot to try your hand to land one of the Kimberley’s ‘big fish’.
An intimate and Stylish Experience
Accommodating no more than 36 travellers on each expedition, the stylish and intimate Reef Prince is guaranteed to offer an unforgettable Kimberley cruising experience. Reef Prince’s itinerary operates over eleven nights between Broome and Darwin and vice versa, with all the highlights included, such as King George Falls, Montgomery Reef, King Cascades and Horizontal Falls. You’ll also discover a several secret swimming, fishing and Aboriginal art sites that Reef Prince’s expedition crew like to keep close to their chests!
The atmosphere on board Reef Prince is decidedly relaxed an Australian. Service is unobtrusive yet professional, and meals in the light and airy dining room constantly receive the very highest of praise. Menus make use of the best local produce, supplemented by freshly caught seafood – if you manage to ‘land a barra’ during a fishing expedition there’s no doubt your efforts will be lauded over dinner!
Regularly refurbished each ‘off season’, Reef Prince offers a high standard of amenity, along with five grades of accommodation to choose from. There’s no doubt that the spacious State Class and Class 1 cabins are in heavy demand, so if you want to snap up one of these during the peak season you will need to be very quick.
Most days on board you’ll enjoy a range of morning and afternoon excursions, from exploration of the rivers and inlets in the tinnies, through to stunning natural swimming holes, examination of the world’s oldest indigenous rock art and heart-racing adventures at Horizontal Falls and Montgomery Reef.

Can’t thank you enough for hooking us up on the trip. It is very hard in the tourism/hospitality business to be very professional but show it in such a relaxed and casual manner. These guys nailed it. The staff were exceptional from the top down. As a cruise director, Nick demonstrated his skill in ensuring that no one was made to feel left out. Very, very good at his trade and his knowledge of the area where he would change the itinerary to show us waterfalls etc that in a normal year would not be flowing. I think that this trip should be known as the eighth wonder of the world.
