Explore Australia’s iconic Kimberley Coast, where ancient rock art galleries and traditions meet time-forgot landscapes home to unique wildlife and endless adventures with pioneering small ship expedition cruise company Heritage Expeditions.
Best explored by expedition vessel, our luxurious, 140-guest expedition ship Heritage Adventurer was purpose-built for adventures like cruising Australia’s wild and remote Kimberley Coast. Her smaller size allows for an intimate, up-close exploration and immersion of this rugged wilderness dwarfed by nature on an unfathomable scale.
During the voyage, you will discover the unforgettable spectacle of King George Falls cascading 80-metres down 2,000-million-year-old towering cliffs. You can also expect to explore the outdoor galleries showcasing the 60,000-year-old Aboriginal rock art of the Gwion Gwion and Wandjina people, World War II relics and early European explorer history.
At Talbot Bay experience the power of the region’s massive tidal movements and the world’s only Horizontal Falls, described by David Attenborough as “one of the greatest wonders of the natural world”.
Marvel at the world’s largest inshore reef system at nearby Montgomery Reef, which ‘rises’ out of the water with the falling tide. On Boongaree Island, look for Monjon (the smallest member of the rock-wallaby family), Northern Quoll, Scaly-tailed Possum and the Northern Leaf-nosed Bat as we explore stunning weather-worn landscapes, while the little-known Osborn Islands promise an authentic expedition adventure.
Hidden among jagged sandstone monoliths, the final resting place of the remarkably preserved WWII Douglas C-53 Skytrooper awaits discovery at Vansittart Bay. Enjoy astounding wildlife encounters and observations of the region’s iconic saltwater crocodiles and marsupials and explore one of the world’s largest and most pristine mangrove systems along the Hunter River, home to White-bellied Sea Eagles, Ospreys, Red-headed Honeyeater, Blue-spotted Mudskippers, Fiddler Crabs and more.
Discover and explore ancient landscapes like no other as we expedition cruise the untouched beauty of the Kimberley on this unforgettable adventure.
