Discovery One Kimberley Cruises.
Discovery One will take you on an unforgettable adventure, allowing you to explore, discover and experience the magnificent Kimberley coast in one of our affordable and best value Kimberley cruises packages.
Our 25mt catamaran has the advantage of being able to deliver up-close experiences that no larger vessel can offer. After 20 years, we’ve perfected the best way to observe the Kimberley’s natural beauty and to take you to places along the coast which will maximise your experience and enjoyment of this remote and pristine wilderness. In combination with our excursions, there is simply no better way to discover the magic of this region.
Cruise the Kimberley Coast.
We only travel during the day so you don’t miss a thing and our dedicated crew and captain of 13 years has a few secrets up his sleeve with itineraries adapted daily to suit tides and weather and to avoid the larger passenger vessels. Discovery One has plenty of deck space for all of our 22 passengers, including a large observation deck with 360 degree views, an eight person spa and sun-lounges.
Cruise the Kimberley with Discovery One and you’ll discover ancient Aboriginal rock art. We visit many sites throughout this beautiful coastal region and take in geological wonders, such as Montgomery Reef in the Buccaneer Archipelago and Horizontal Falls in Talbot Bay. Magnificent waterfalls will take your breath away – like King Cascade Falls – and eroded gorges and sandstone cliffs will amaze. A voyage through the Kimberley is truly a spectacular experience.

SUZANNE & ALAN CARLISLE
Having just completed our second cruise with Discovery One we were once again thrilled with the experience. We loved being able to cruise in comfort while enjoying the vast stunningly beautiful vistas of the Kimberley…from the turquoise waters to the vivid colours of the craggy shoreline. It is a precious gift to explore this unique region of Australia with the Discovery One Crew.
JULIE & JOHN RHODES
Loved the Cruise! It was beyond our expectations. We will be proud to share our experience and photo memories with family and friends and to recommend it to all. Maybe we will return ourselves one day. To Lennie and all the crew – Thanks a million!
ALEX & VICKI HUNTER
We had such a fantastic time on our cruise in May 2014 that we sailed again in August 2018! Lenny, Tamra and the rest of the crew on both Discovery One trips were unbelievable – nothing was a problem and they went out of their way to ensure that each and every one of their 22 guests was looked after like family. And the food – simply amazing!!! We chose Discovery One because it was a small boat which travelled during daytime hours only and could cater for all guests at the one time when touring around in the zodiacs…
DARYL & MEREDITH WARREN
I have been on many cruises from the Artic to the Antarctic and the two Discovery One cruises I have done in the Kimberley are some of the best ever. It is amazing scenery with great variety, plus there is a good deal of wildlife from seabirds through crocodiles to whales – all close up. The Skipper Lennie is informative, flexible and knowledgeable from his many, many years in the Kimberley and is simply just a good bloke.
JOHN KELLEY
It is some years since Monique and I had one of the best trip experiences in our lives when we went on a Discovery One cruise. The Kimberley is like nothing else that we have found around the world . If you are reading this then you will have started to investigate same and I can assure you that words alone do not do justice to the scenery . If you are into photos of your trips in Australia , or elsewhere in the world , Discovery One will provide you the platform for shots to die for. And its not just about photograph , Discovery One is an overall experience. The crew were just great , friendly and attentive.
IAN ALEXANDER
We were so very happy we chose Discovery One. Firstly, the crew were so friendly and could not do enough for us. Also there was only 22 passengers and ample room on the boat. As a result the atmosphere was friendly, casual and very relaxing.
We were lucky to have Lennie as our Captain and he could adapt our itinerary to the changing conditions. His knowledge of the Kimberley coast was exceptional, and he always put the safety of the passengers first.
Unlike some other cruises, the Discovery One was small enough to navigate up many of the tidal rivers.
ROBYN HOLCZ
GREAT HOLIDAY !!!!!
Only 22 passengers –Like one big family. Very professional and friendly crew. Very casual. Captain Lennie knows all the places to visit. Anchors up at night so you do not miss any of the magnificent sights and coastline. Two tenders to take all passengers on excursions at once. Excursions are never rushed. Also great Food.
Truly a value for money holiday. Been twice and about to book for another fantastic holiday.
JOHN HALDEN
We have just disembarked from the most awesome adventure. Thanks to Lennie, Tamra, Mel, Tracy, Adjat and Nigel for taking us to this remote and beautiful part of the Kimberley and sharing their knowledge and enthusiasm with us. A boutique experience which we can’t recommend highly enough. Congratulations to all at Discovery One.
JUDY GRANT
What a fantastic holiday we had, from the start with you booking everything exactly how we wanted with nothing being too difficult, to the arrival and getting familiar with our surroundings, onto the amazing sites we saw and places we went and finishing with the fantastic crew who were always helpful; nothing was ever too hard and they went above and beyond at all times. We couldn’t have asked for better treatment all the way through and we just had an amazing time with memories to last us a lifetime.
DEBBIE & TONY ZON
I am just back at home in Brisbane after our wonderful Kimberley trip and want to take the opportunity to thank you, the crew and everyone involved. The feedback I have received from the group has been overwhelmingly positive – everyone had a great time! Our whole trip went really smoothly from the accommodation in Broome, our bus driver for the trip from Broome to Derby and return, the great food, and the excellent friendly service by the onboard crew and, especially, the interesting and informative onshore excursions. The comment I get from several of our party since arriving back in Brisbane has been “How good was that?” I would definitely recommend Discovery One to anyone who would like to have a truly memorable experience of the Kimberley Coast.
BEN WALTERS
…without a doubt the most wonderful holiday I have ever experienced; wonderful staff, incredible destinations, amazing food and a most exciting adventure. I would not change a thing.
Many thanks!
VERONICA THOMAS
Just wanted to let you know that we have just arrived back home after an absolutely fantastic cruise. The crew were the best, always smiling and keen to ensure we had a great trip. The other passengers were all great and we now have 20 new friends. The trip could not have been better. I also wanted to thank you for all your help with the booking and pre-cruise advice which you were happy to do no matter what time we rang. It was very much appreciated.
JENNIFER BAILEY & MICHAEL BIANCO
I just wanted to express my thanks to you and the wonderful crew of Discovery One. Carol and I have just returned from the best holiday we have ever had. Lenny and the crew could not do more for us and the food was amazing. We have seen parts of our wonderful country that we never knew existed. The colours are beautiful and the waterfalls are magnificent. We have thanked the crew when we left the boat but I would like to ask you to thank them again for us. Thanks for your time and effort before the trip and thanks for Discovery One.
KELVIN & CAROL HOLLAND
Discovery One is a wonderful vessel; perfect size, very comfortable and with 22 passengers there was plenty of room. The 2 tenders meant we all got to go on excursions at the same time. The option of the helicopter and fast boat at the Horizontal Falls was appreciated. We enjoyed both activities. The crew were professional, caring, very friendly and genuine. We knew a bit about the Kimberley before travelling on Discovery One but the cruise helped us to really appreciate this beautiful place.
TONY & SUE HOFF
Just outstanding! We were really impressed with our Discovery One cruise and the staff. It certainly created great memories for a lifetime. From start to finish the cruise was extremely well run and an excellent mix of chill time, adventure time and such fun! The efforts of the crew to celebrate Mario’s 70th were absolutely fantastic and made his day and evening very memorable for him.
Thank you.
LINDA & MARIO CARRETTIN
We would like to thank you and ask that you pass on our thanks to the crew of Discovery one. We have just completed Cruise 13 and had the best time. The crew are marvellous; helpful, caring and knowledgeable about the Kimberly area. We have loved the whole experience. What a wonderful area the Kimberly is and your staff made it a trip to remember. We will recommend it to all we speak to.
SHEILA FREER & GEOFF HAWLEY
The crew were excellent and the food exceptional. The destinations were great and due to the skill of the Captain, we enjoyed them at their best. We have been on many different holidays but rate this as one of the best. We also appreciated the “small” things; an excellent laundry service; no security worries regarding valuables; the top deck was very enjoyable for views, breezes and happy hour with nibbles; the bathroom facilities were spotless.
Good luck to you all for the future.
