There is nothing quite as immersive, invigorating, profound and peaceful as a Kimberley Coast cruise. Here, in one of the oldest and largest landscapes on Earth, is a largely untouched wilderness of striking contrasts, with 1,200-kilometres (746mi) of sheer cliffs, pristine white sands and clear turquoise waters teeming with marine life.

Experience the nautical tradition that is the Sydney to Hobart yacht race, with this 7-day cruise that gets you as close to the action as possible aboard the luxurious Coral Discoverer.
While most people wake up early on 26 December for Boxing Day sales, a handful of intrepid sailors wake up earlier for an even more daunting challenge.

Once across the Strait, enjoy the scenic rugged Tasmanian coast, with the opportunity to join the expedition team, on guided shore excursions to the Maria and Bruny Islands, two of Tasmania’s most beautiful National Parks and wildlife sanctuaries. Arrive into Hobart on New Year’s Eve and enjoy the buzz of the race and New Year’s Eve celebrations.
This once-in-a-lifetime expedition cruise includes 10-nights aboard Coral Discoverer on a twin share basis. This luxurious 72 passenger vessel is purpose-built to take you closer to unspoilt vistas in comfort, style and safety.

All meals are included onboard. The approach to cuisine is about simplicity and generosity, creating dishes bursting with flavour made from fresh ingredients sourced locally and sustainably wherever possible.
