KIMBERLEY LUXURY CRUISES

There are many places on the map that are described as remote. Or timeless. Or “off the beaten track”. Or an “adventure of a lifetime”. But while many times you might come across the road more travelled, Australia’s Kimberley really is the whole package. One of the last remaining authentic wildernesses, the Kimberley is every explorer’s final frontier. Three times the size of England, bigger than Japan, this vast area at the very north of the Western Territory has been topping buckets lists for years. Almost impenetrable, the Kimberley is an explorer’s dream come true; rife with a complex network of gorges, canyons, ridges, cliffs and horizontal falls, not to mention 160-century old rock art and local Aboriginal culture, the Kimberley is both unforgiving and unforgettable. Join us on a Silversea Kimberley luxury cruise and conquer the last remaining traveller’s paradise. Read more about the Kimberley.

Destination Highlights

Kimberley Cruises
HUNTER RIVER
The Hunter River is home to an immense mangrove system surrounded by soaring red sandstone cliffs. Narrow mangrove channels shelter numerous bird species, mudskippers, fiddler crabs and the infamous saltwater crocodile; the most aggressive crocodile species known to man. Naturalist Island at the mouth of the river has a stunning stretch of sandy beach that makes a perfect landing site for small helicopters that can pick up visitors wishing to explore some of the Kimberley’s vast interior.

KING GEORGE RIVER
The King George Falls is one of the Kimberley’s most magnificent natural wonders. At 80 meters (260 feet), the thundering spectacle of twin cascades are among the highest in Australia. The river weaves through an amazing landscape of near vertical red rock formations and a parade of wildlife — carnivorous saltwater crocodiles and amazing birdlife, including giant raptors and the Brahminy Kite.

BROOME
Roughly 15,000 people live year-round in Broome perched on the edge of the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The population swells to over 45,000 during the tourist season as people from all over the world are drawn to the natural splendours of the Dampier Peninsula. Broome is surrounded by lush green mangroves and mudflats along Roebuck Bay, but the interior is dry and rugged like much of the Kimberley coast.

Silversea Luxury Cruises - Darwin, Australia
DARWIN
Darwin is Australia's most colourful, and exotic, capital city. Surrounded on three sides by the turquoise waters of the Timor Sea, the streets are lined with tropical flowers and trees. Warm and dry in winter, hot and steamy in summer, it's a relaxed and casual place, as well as a beguiling blend of tropical frontier outpost and Outback hardiness. Darwin is a city that has always had to fight for its survival.

MONTGOMERY REEF
Montgomery Reef, which is some 300 square kilometres in size, can show an amazing tidal change of up to 4 metres. When the tide drops, the reef seems to rise out of the water. At low tide a river is exposed that allows access to an amazing semi-submerged world. When the tide continues to ebb, Zodiacs will be used to make the way to the edge of the reef where one is surrounded by cascading waterfalls up to 3 metres high.

Kimberley Cruises
ROWLEY SHOALS
Some 300 kilometres northwest of Broome, the Rowley Shoals consists of the three reefs Imperieuse, Clerke and Mermaid. The first two reefs form the Rowley Shoals Marine Park and have sandy cays that will still be visible at high tide. Bedwell Island, a small sandy cay inside Clerke Reef, is home to one of Western Australia’s two colonies of Red-tailed Tropicbirds. Other birds nesting on the island are Wedge-tailed Shearwaters, White-bellied Sea-Eagles, Eastern Reef-Egrets and terns.

THE KIMBERLEY

DID YOU KNOW?
Aboriginal rock art is said to be among the oldest – if not the oldest – in the world. And a sequence in the Kimberley is thought to be an amazing 16,000 years old – predating many Western European cave drawings. While it is incredibly difficult to accurately date rock art, archaeologists and geologists from the University of New England (along with 20 members of the local Aboriginal community) worked together using “an amazing technique” using fossilised mud wasps’ nests “mainly because it was the only material that we could actually use” (uranium and carbon dating had both failed due to the fact that the paintings did not contain any organic materials. And you thought the pyramids were old!
