The Kimberley A place of unique experiences

Australia is a place of extremes and the dramatic Kimberley, in the country’s northwest, is no exception. One of Australia’s remotest regions it is home to some of the country’s most unsung natural attractions – many of them inaccessible by road.

Discover ancient landscapes on Swan Hellenic’s exceptional 11-day voyage exploring Kimberley, Western Australia’s most sparsely settled northern region. Your journey around this precious coastal wilderness is defined by azure blue seas, tiny islands, fjordlands and extraordinary high tides. Inland, Aboriginal art daubs towering sandstone cliffs and caves, while the scraggy eucalypt savannah is home to crocodiles and rock wallabies. Get your camera ready as we sail through humpback whale calving grounds, as boobies, egrets and Eastern spreys take to the skies.

With some areas only accessible by sea, cruising this revered land on our luxury, boutique ship will leave lasting memories. The spectacular Indian Ocean coastline, reef systems, gorges and sandstone ranges of the Kimberley are home to several marine and terrestrial national parks. Keep an eye out Eastern ospreys, endangered Gouldian finches, humpback whales, saltwater and estuarine crocodiles and six of the world’s seven species of turtle.
