The Kimberley Region of northwest Australia and the nearly one thousand islands off its coast have been a top attraction for tourists for many years. Offering beautiful secluded bays and beaches, mangroves, rainforests and more, this areas is best explored by boat.
You can find a cruise to go with any interest, from birdwatching, photography and beach combing to hiking and fishing. Take a longer trip if you'd like to swim in some of the area's beautiful waters, teaming with fish, turtles and other wildlife, or do some island exploration.
See whales, sharks, birds and saltwater crocodiles from a distance, check out Strickland Bay's amazing eroded rocks, Hidden Island's fantastic pure white beach, and Kooland Island's iron mine.
There's also Aboriginal art, working pearl farms, and the chance to fish near coral reefs or collect oysters. Some cruises will even allow anglers to choose the day's catch as a meal.
Check out the Horizontal Falls at Talbot Bay - a real horizontal waterfall that's caused by the way the tide goes through a passage in the cliffs. The gap is so narrow that the water builds up faster on one side than it can pass through, making a difference of four to six meters in the water level, and causing a waterfall to flow between the bays.
Some have described these falls as one of the world's greatest natural wonders. However, you should remember to see them under the safe circumstances of a cruise, since extreme water conditions have caused many fatalities among sailors and pearl divers through the years.
The good news is that if you're in the right situation, you'll be safe, with boats even passing through the waterfall. People looking for less of a thrill can see this site in a dry seaplane or helicopter.
Look for cruises that do most of their distance travel at night if you want to be sure to have the most time on the islands themselves. In addition, look at what's included in the tour - some include fishing and snorkeling gear as well as meals and snacks, while on others, these things cost extra.
Anyone going on an adventure cruise in Australia should take appropriate clothing, including light garments that will keep them cool, a wide brimmed hat, and good walking shoes that can get wet. Don't forget the sunscreen and insect repellent, either, and pack your camera.
Most tours happen during the dry season, between April and November, but some also occur during Australia's wet season, since there are lots of places to shelter in rough weather. Pick your cruise according to what you want to see and how exciting you want the weather to be.
Kimberley adventure cruises are a great choice for anyone who's looking for fun. Pick a cruise that lasts long enough to let you see it all, and get all cruise details before you leave, so you'll have a great time. - 16759
