Perth, Western Australia Cruise from Fremantle to Broome — 11 Days

Fremantle, Australia

Fremantle is Perth’s historic port, where Victorian streets meet the Indian Ocean. Visit 19th-century Fremantle Prison, part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, then explore the West End’s limestone buildings. Fishing Boat Harbour serves fresh seafood beside working vessels. The Western Australian Maritime Museum tells the story of the state’s seafaring past. Perth is just 30 minutes away by train, making Fremantle an easy gateway to the city and coast.

Jurien Bay WA (Scenic Area)

Houtman Abrolhos Islands Australia (Scenic Stop)

Kimberley Coast, Australia

The Kimberley coast is one of Australia’s great wildernesses, where red sandstone cliffs meet the Indian Ocean. Expedition vessels reach tidal inlets, mangrove creeks and waterfalls spilling from the plateau after rain. Aboriginal custodians share a deep connection to Country here. In season, watch for saltwater crocodiles and migrating humpback whales. Tides, weather and careful planning shape every landing.

Broome WA, Australia

Broome sits where the red Kimberley meets the Indian Ocean, shaped by tides and pearls. At Cable Beach, pale sand and a vast horizon invite an unhurried swim or a sunset camel ride. Chinatown and the Japanese cemetery trace a pearling history built by divers from across Asia. At Gantheaume Point, low tides can expose dinosaur footprints in the red rock. Between March and October, Roebuck Bay’s Staircase to the Moon may turn its mudflats into an evening spectacle.
