ACTIVITY RATING

Join us exploring Australia’s Kimberley Coast on an unforgettable small ship adventure, travelling with a Blue Dot tour leader and the experienced Coral Expeditions team. For 30 years, Coral Expeditions have been refining this classic Australian adventure. With a maximum of 72 guests, Coral have fostered a relaxed convivial atmosphere on board, offering daily excursions and adventures, designed to be experienced along side a group of like-minded travellers.

Coral’s Australian-flagged expedition ships have been specially designed for the Kimberley, and feature wraparound decks, private balconies, and comfortable outdoor dining spaces. Coral’s chefs, inspired by the destination, prepare cuisine from fresh regional produce. On board, the wine cellars hold a curated selection of wines and unique beers from Australia and New Zealand. Dinner and drinks can be enjoyed alfresco in the evening, with every night bringing the promise of a glorious Kimberley sunset.

During the day, Coral’s open-sided Xplorer tender boats will take guests on excursions to the Kimberley’s magnificent cliffs and waterfalls, while providing shelter from the West Australian sun. Every day is a new adventure, from spotting native wildlife and birdlife in their natural habitat, to finding a magical secluded beach for sunset canapés and sundowners. We’ll get to experience the thrill of riding the Horizontal Falls in inflatable Zodiac tender vessels and witness King George River and 80m tall twin King George waterfalls. We’ll encounter Indigenous rock art galleries, and cruise the Prince Regent River to the ‘hanging garden’ King Cascade waterfall. We will get up close to Montgomery Reef and discover the tidal reef’s diverse marine life.

In the evening, mingle with other guests, enjoy daily educational presentations by Coral's lecturers, participate in stargazing sessions after dark, or find a quiet corner on deck and take in the incredible beauty of the Kimberley Coast.

Blue Dot has secured limited cabins for the June 2025 departure. Join Brod and Joanne on this wonderful adventure.

Our expedition begins in Broome and ends in Darwin.

Read the testimonial from traveller Mary D: "It was a fantastic experience. I didn’t feel left out at all being a solo traveller. Only having 65 passengers instead of the usual 120 helped enormously.  The crew were very accommodating for those not so agile, helping them get to the more difficult places (a bit of rock scrambling at a few places); the excursions were all well executed, with plenty of information along the way.  Most days, there was a talk on various aspects of the region which was given by the guest experts. Food was varied and more than enough to satisfy everyone, including vegetarians.  Overall, Coral has the best coverage in the area, even though you could find cheaper operators. They are proudly Australian and employ Australian staff.  They have the carefully procured rights to enter where other operators do not, which means no crowds from other ships. I have no hesitation in highly recommending this trip"
