Overview

Embark on an unforgettable 10-night cruise in The Kimberley from Darwin to Broome

Expert guides interpret 40,000-year-old rock art and retrace the history of Phillip Parker King who first charted this spectacular coastline 200 years ago. Later in the season, witness humpback whales on their migration. Board a Zodiac and touch the spray from the magnificent King George River and its towering 260ft (80m) twin falls. Join an expert guide to learn about the history of the ancient Wandjina and Gwion Gwion rock paintings. Witness waterfalls cascading off Montgomery Reef as it rises out of the ocean on the ebbing tide, while discovering diverse marine life.

The dry season (May to October) is characterised by blue skies, easterly winds and balmy days with some chilly nights. The weather is generally stable and rain is unlikely.

During the wet season (November to April), The Kimberley becomes hot and humid, wet and can be unpredictable.
