Coral Expeditions- The Northern Territory

At Coral Expeditions, they have one purpose: to take small groups of like-minded explorers to remote places, with expert guidance and warm Australian hospitality.

From humble beginnings on the Great Barrier Reef, they’ve taken their fleet of small ships to explore the remote coastlines of the Kimberley, Tasmania, Papua New Guinea and beyond.

For four decades, they’ve proudly sailed under the Australian flag, upholding the highest standards of safety. With Australian and New Zealand crew, their vessels are renowned for the relaxed and intimate atmosphere that makes you feel at home.

With extended time ashore and led by an expert Expedition Team who are passionate about their destination, our guests have the opportunity to truly connect with the people and places we visit and experience authentic encounters with nature. Our small ships provide the flexibility to visit destinations inaccessible to larger vessels, with minimal impact on the environment.

Immersive experiences, respect for cultures, and connection with communities are the foundation of our expeditions. We bring you closer to nature, culture, and history through the spirit of discovery and shared knowledge.

Kimberley Icons, Ashmore and The Rowley Shoals | Darwin - Broome | 12 Nights

Combine the classic 10-day Kimberley itinerary with the spectacular Rowley Shoals Marine Park and Ashmore Reef. Witness the Kimberleys’ magnificent coastal vistas and finish off the voyage with some of the best snorkelling and diving.

The Kimberley Cruise | Darwin - Broome | 10 Nights

Thirty years ago, when they made the first exploratory cruises in the Kimberley, they had to rely on hand-drawn ‘mudmaps’ and the knowledge of fishermen and early explorers to navigate the vast and unpredictable coastline. Today, with decades of experience behind them, and in-house experts, maps, tidal charts, and landing notes, they have a level of knowledge that cannot be easily replicated.

Now, Coral Expeditions invite you to join them on the classic 10-night Kimberley expedition. Witness the power of nature at the magnificent King George River and its towering twin falls, explore ancient rock art with expert guides, and witness diverse marine life and cascading waters at Montgomery Reef. Later in the season, you may also see the majestic Humpback Whales on their migration north to breeding grounds. Every Kimberley voyage is different. Come and discover the Kimberley for yourself with the pioneers.

Best of The Kimberley & Tiwi Islands | Broome - Darwin | 10 Nights

Discover natural cave galleries and rock formations to reveal Wandjina and Gwion Gwion figures. Travel deep into the King George and Berkeley River systems to witness a landscape carved by the powerful forces of tides and monsoon rains.
