As one of the world\u2019s most remote destinations, the Kimberley is known for its otherworldly landscapes and culture that dates back some 50,000 years. It\u2019s the pinnacle of outback travel and the ultimate Australian destination to see the country\u2019s rugged beauty. And now there\u2019s a new way to experience it.<\/p>\n

Seabourn Pursuit<\/em> is visiting the Kimberley in 2024 for the first time, with 10-day sailings between Broome and Darwin. You\u2019ll be joined by a team of world-renowned scientists, historians, and naturalists who will take you on a once-in-a-lifetime expedition on a handcrafted itinerary to discover unique ecosystems, landscapes and wildlife in this fascinating part of Western Australia.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M916iQtieFs”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1684803387185{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Natural wonders in the Kimberley<\/h3>\n

Aboard a Kimberley cruise, you’ll visit the likes of Montgomery Reef, recognised as one of the most significant geological marine environments anywhere on Earth, and King George Falls, Western Australia\u2019s highest twin waterfalls. Birdwatchers will delight in the views from Telegraph Hill which is nearby Parry Lagoons Nature Reserve; thousands of tropical birds and migratory waders rest here. While, for those who love a natural swimming hole, the breathtaking gorge, The Grotto, offers a refreshing dip in the sparkling pool below a cascading waterfall.<\/p>\n

Bucket list expeditions<\/h3>\n

The expedition team will lead Zodiac trips to natural wonders like the Horizontal Falls and Turtle Reef, an incredible reef system stretching across nearly 10 miles. It’s home to dugongs, crocodiles, as well as sponges, mollusks and other sea creatures. You’ll be able to embark on guided hikes past surreal sandstone escarpments, spectacular gorges, and primaeval caves richly adorned with rock art.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1597204171231{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”flexslider_slide” interval=”0″ images=”81334,81724″ img_size=”full” css=”.vc_custom_1684473707158{margin-bottom: -10px !important;}”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1684472360476{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Kimberley cruises activities and adventures<\/h3>\n

Designed to handle diverse environments, Seabourn Pursuit<\/em> will make your journey into the Kimberleys a luxurious and comfortable experience. Carrying two custom-built submarines, 24 Zodiacs, and kayaks and staffed by 26 expert expedition team members, there will be no limit to your opportunities onboard.<\/p>\n

An enriching journey<\/h4>\n

You’ll leave an expert after spending your days in the Discovery Centre, accompanied by the world-class expedition team of wilderness experts, scientists, historians and naturalists. Each day, enriching lectures, briefings and audio-visual experiences will dive into the region you’ll be journeying through. As well as witnessing life under the sea from submarine footage.<\/p>\n

Wine, dine and unwind<\/h4>\n

Share a complimentary cocktail or glass of fine wine with fellow adventurers in the Expedition Lounge. The custom furniture, with its warm, natural materials makes it a welcome space to share stories and reflect on the day’s ventures. Or retreat to Seabourn Square, considered ‘the true living room of the ship’. Sip on barista coffee while sampling freshly made pastries, or a range of on-the-go breakfast items, light sandwiches and artisanal gelato.<\/p>\n

For the best seat in the house, the Constellation Lounge will offer the highest indoor viewing point, and with the floor-to-ceiling glass walls, you’ll have stunning outward-facing views. Early risers can dine on a continental breakfast, while afternoons will feature an elegant tea service. By sundown, cocktails and tapas will be served before dinner.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1597204171231{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_gallery type=”flexslider_slide” interval=”0″ images=”81729,81333″ img_size=”full” css=”.vc_custom_1684474089023{margin-bottom: -10px !important;}”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
