Choosing your Kimberley Cruise

When determining the Kimberley expedition that best suits you, you can choose a voyage from as little as four days, all the way through to two weeks. And, it goes without saying that the more time you put aside, the more you will be able to see and discover.

Whilst some of the shorter four night ‘taster’ cruises provide a great introduction to expedition cruising – and Australia’s Kimberley Coast – we do recommend that you spend a minimum of eight nights cruising. This will ensure you have sufficient time to see all the must-see highlights, plus a lot more. And, you’ll really appreciate the extra days once you slip into the cruising life. In fact you might never want to get off!

If you are short on time though don’t despair. True North offers a ‘Kimberley Snapshot’ cruise of just eight days focusing on the main locations along the coast. Even on this shorter expedition you will experience Montgomery Reef, Horizontal, Mitchell and King George falls and Raft Point. But you won’t have as much time to linger and discoverer a few of the lesser known spots.

Great Escape, Kimberley Pearl, Ocean Dream, Odyssey, Kimberley Pearl and Kimberley Quest also offer week-long cruises focusing in on a specific area. The seven-night Southern Quest highlights the icons between Broome and Mitchell Plateau. A week-long voyage exploring the towering gorges and waterfalls of the Northern Kimberley is also on offer.

And of course there’s even shorter fishing expeditions of five to six days that focus solely on the aim of catching one of the Kimberley’s monster ‘Barras’.
