Excursion Vessels
Most excursions are via our three expedition tenders.
The main excursion vessel is the Regent which is a purpose built 7m alloy tender designed for Kimberley Expeditions in 2019. It has twin 140hp outboard motors and seats 13 guests and two crew in forward facing padded seats with back rests. It is perfectly suited for extended sightseeing, shore transfers and adventure cruising.
Additionally there are 2 x 6m alloy tenders with 140hp outboard motors that seat up to 10 guests each. These are multi-purpose tenders and can be used for sightseeing, excursions, shore transfers, fishing and crabbing.
All three tenders are used at almost every location ensuring every guest onboard can be accommodated all at once. It also allows for diversity by giving guests a choice of activities such sightseeing, hiking or fishing.
Our Crew
The crew of our vessels have been chosen carefully. From Marine and tourism backgrounds all our crew have been carefully trained and inducted. For instance, as well as being a qualified Chef with a RSA our crew may also have additional tickets like STW95, Coxswains certificates, Master 5, Engineer Certification and AMSA medicals.
Small Ship Cruising
Specialised Tours
Kimberley Expeditions specialises in Kimberley Eco tours, where you can get up close and personal with the region. Plenty of time and opportunity for all guests to participate and explore the magnificent Kimberley.
MV Reef Prince is still small enough to sneak into secluded bays and gorges, hover under falls and show-off the Kimberley wilderness. The fewer number of passengers makes it a more personal experience and means we can do all our excursions together in one big tender, thus saving time for even more experiences of this amazing coastline.
Our cruises focus on exploring the Kimberley Coastline from Broome to Darwin for our 12 day cruises. During our 12 Day cruises you can cover all of the top “Kimberley Icons” plus some of the crews favourite sites. This 12 day Kimberley cruise is also available departing Darwin.
Each itinerary specifies certain places of interest, there are many other places not listed where our vessel Master may take you if time and tides allow.
Keen photographer?
See photos from our cruises for some absolutely breathtaking sights, all waiting for you to experience – aboard a cruise with the team at Kimberley Expeditions.
Paul our resident Tour Director is also a professional photographer and photography instructor and depending on your cruise date, he may be on-hand to assist you with any photographic queries to get those perfect Kimberley images. If there are a few people interested he may even be able to run a photography course onboard over the course of the 12 days to give you a better understanding of photography principles and move you away from the automatic “point and shoot” mode and encouraging you to shoot in modes where you have a lot more control. This course is for DSLR and mirrorless camera systems. It is not for basic cameras or camera phones. If you are really interested in doing the course please contact the office on 1300 874 707 to confirm your tour date aligns with Paul being onboard. Paul will then send you some more information prior to your boarding.
