Journey to the outer reaches of the World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef on this 8-day expedition cruise aboard the luxurious Coral Discoverer. This package is perfect for those looking to venture far beyond the crowds to the remote and untouched Northern reefs.
Covering an area of over 2,300-kilometres (1429mi) and encompassing over 900 islands in Tropical North Queensland, the Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef system. The reef is home to an abundance of marine life of the most vivid colours and is rightfully one of the 7 natural wonders of the world.
Embarking from Cairns, Queensland, this immersive cruise aboard Coral Discoverer takes you far beyond the crowds to the remote and untouched Northern Reefs. With an expert crew, including a Marine Biologist, explore hidden corners, uninhabited sand cays, small islands and pristine reef systems. Share the journey with soaring seabirds and swim, snorkel and dive at far-flung Osprey and Ribbon Reefs at the edge of the continental shelf. Learn about Indigenous culture and Australian heritage at the historic Cooktown. Hike to the top of Cook’s Look and see the same view that Captain Cook did on his pioneering voyage of Australia. Enjoy a sundowner on a private island at Sudbury Cay. On this journey, freedom and solitude won’t be hard to find!
Throughout your journey, choose the activities and experiences that suit you. Spend your days swimming, snorkelling and diving, or venture ashore for guided bushwalks in destinations including Mossman Gorge, the Daintree and Fitzroy Island. Alternatively, if you wish to stay on board during the day and simply enjoy the scenery you are welcome to do so. After the day’s exertions, retire to Coral Discoverer’s panoramic Xplorer bar and recharge with some of Australia’s famous food and wine.
This once-in-a-lifetime expedition cruise includes 7-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.
