The Kimberley region in North Western Australia is a panorama of rugged mountains, spectacular gorges and majestic waterfalls.
The region attracts visitors from all over the world – but not everybody is fortunate enough to truly experience this ancient land.
Purpose-built to go where other ships cannot, the stylish adventure cruise ship True North provides a level of access that is the envy of others.
Whilst others sail past – they can safely navigate the region’s many shallow river systems and provide their guests with intimate access to the region’s iconic nature features.
Their activity-based itineraries include tactile experiences such as hiking, fishing, mud crabbing, picnics, natural history interpretation, seeing the ancient rock art of the Australian Aborigines and exhilarating helicopter rides.
True North – setting the adventure-cruise benchmark for more than 30 years.
Itinerary highlights
Horizontal Waterfalls
Experience the awesome power of the region’s huge tidal range in an exhilarating tender ride and then climb aboard your air conditioned helicopter for a view of the falls that very few experience!
Montgomery Reef
Montgomery is a unique eco-system that must be seen to be believed and see it you will as 140 square miles of coral reef rises out of the ocean right before your very eyes! Water cascades from the reef as the tide falls exposing a privileged glimpse of another world! Turtles, dugong, manta rays and every imaginable sea creature abound and the helicopter puts all in perspective!
Kings Cascades
At Kings Cascades they manoeuvre the True North right under the falls.Then it’s time for more ‘adventure in the tender’ – a chance to stretch the laces on your hiking boots and an opportunity to swim in yet another picture perfect billabong.
King George Falls
As soon as the tide is high enough, they’ll cross the sand bars at the mouth to reveal even more breathtaking river vista. Then their journey upstream will take them to the very ‘jewel in the crown’ – The King George Falls. Here they anchor at the base of the Twin Falls and you will find endless places to explore. Take the helicopter to the top of the falls for a cruise highlight.

True North Adventure Cruises – True North II
On a True North expedition, you’ll embark on an adventure that only a few people in the world get to experience.
True North and True North II are purpose-built to go where big ships cannot, while exploring even further in dedicated adventure boats. Most itineraries also feature an onboard helicopter, so you can visit locations almost inaccessible to most. In-between locations, you’ll relish in the luxury of our beautifully designed boat. Not to mention onboard chefs, who craft a bespoke menu inspired by your location and daily catch.
You’ll be able to pack your days full of scenic tours, fishing, mud crabbing, waterfall walks, picnics, natural history appreciation, rock art and helicopter excursions.
To make sure your experience is uniquely catered to you, itineraries are limited to small groups (36 guests aboard True North and just 22 guests aboard True North II) with an Australian crew on board every expedition (22 crew on True North and 15 crew on True North II).
For more than 35 years they have immersed guests in stunning landscapes, coral wonderlands, unique cultural opportunities, and extraordinary encounters with nature.
