accommodation in Broome, a bus trip between Broome & Derby at the start of the cruise and a bus
transfer between Wyndham and Kununurra at the conclusion. We also include a commercial flight from

Why choose DISCOVERY ONE?
1. Our 25m catamaran, Discovery One, is the perfect choice for a
friendly, casual and relaxed cruise.
2. We are more affordable than other similar cruises and don’t
use Travel Agents to market for us, therefore we avoid paying
commissions of up to 20%.
3. We carry a maximum of 22 passengers so can do all excursions
together. This means we can fit more excursions into each
itinerary. 4. Discovery One has a shallow draft so is capable of taking you up
close to points of interest without wasting time tracking a long
distance up rivers in our tenders.
5. We have the capacity to carry more fuel than similar boats and can travel further and explore more
places of interest over a longer period of time.
6. We don’t travel at night, ensuring that you get a peaceful night’s sleep with the motors off and, most
importantly, you don’t miss any of the spectacular scenery.
7. We start our cruises from Derby or Wyndham, rather than Broome or Darwin, avoiding stretches of the
coast where seas can be rough and there’s very little to see. This means that every day of your cruise
is on the Kimberley Coast where all the places of interest are to be found.
8. Our Captain has been with us for many years and has found some amazing places where other
cruise boats don’t go. These are not listed on our itinerary but he will fit them in where possible.

2. Derby
3. Cape Leveque
