Another magical trip with our guests on their way back to Broome aboard a helicopter first, then a chartered fixed wing back to Broome.

Not only do we see the Kimberley from the water but also from the air - if you come cruising with us.

2025 is long time booked out but 2026 is open for bookings, we'd love to see you next season!!

Discovery One is really all about getting off the main boat, jumping into a tender and exploring the Kimberley - waterfalls, reefs, rivers, and hidden gems only locals know.

20 years in the Kimberley means we know where to go — and how to avoid the crowds.

Woke up in the Kimberley the other day, leaving King George as the first light broke through. Here’s to many more days of adventure in this incredible place. 🌅

Our Story

The Kimberley coast is a spectacular landscape – considered one of the world’s most precious wilderness regions. Cruise the 1,000 islands of the Buccaneer Archipelago, explore pristine white sandy beaches and swim at little known freshwater rock pools. Take in the richly coloured cliff formations, ancient rock art, remote reefs and the world’s only horizontal falls. Be in awe of the staggering 10m tides - the largest tides in the world and admire the abundant wildlife – playful Humpback whales, nesting turtles, dolphins and bird life.

It is not surprising the Kimberley is one of Australia’s must-see destinations.

“I can’t say enough about the incredible itinerary that Lennie put together. Lennie’s knowledge is extraordinary and his effort to take us to such beautiful and significant sites is very much appreciated. The walks and swims were fantastic, as were the many scenic trips and tours of artwork. Every day was full of excitement and surprise! Superb.” K I R S T Y M A L E Y C R U I S E 3 2 0 19
