Renovated in 2016, the twin-hulled Coral Expeditions I is a boutique vessel that is perfect for intimate small ship cruises with high standards of comfort and service. The stable ship is ideal for those who worry about motion sickness. With just 25 cabins, and a maximum of 46 guests per trip, you can make new friends and meet like-minded travellers without being afloat with the masses. All en suite rooms provide outside views and have air conditioning and sufficient storage space. Head up to the sun deck for some fresh air and to enjoy the views, and kick back at the bar with a drink as you swap stories with other passengers. If the heat’s a bit too much you can retreat to the air-conditioned lounge, complete with large windows so you don’t miss anything. The large dining room can fit all guests at the same time and you can visit the open bridge to watch the captain controlling your vessel and deftly maneuvering through the waters. Other onboard facilities include a reference library, Wi-Fi, and a gift shop, and snorkelling equipment is available for you to marvel at the underwater delights.

Virus was Live Aboard!

Loved the landscape and Sandy's description thereof and his presentation on the history of indigenous peoples in Oz. Adam's discussion on turtles and marine parks across Australia was also excellent. The indigenous art, especially Gwion-Gwion was totally fascinating. Loved Montgomery Reef and the salt water crocodile we saw there was a real bonus. I did not mind the choppy ride on the last two nights but the virus I had after the second day really took the shine off. The fever was gone after 2 days but the subsequent cold and cough were not fun. It was great to meet the different people on board, and the crew were superb, personable.

Absolutely wonderful 4 days, one of the best tours we have had!!!

The smaller, more intimate vessel size with 12 crew and 21 passengers really let you feel the experience at a completely different level. Every need was thought Of and I can not think of anything that I would change! Great value for the money!

Crew, food and unique experiences!

Fantastic once in a lifetime experience.

Nares Point with its convoluted and confounding geology. King George Falls experience (including being drenched underneath them in the Zodiac) Interesting and informative talks by the guest lecturers. Amazing hard working crew, who went above and beyond to give us the best experience possible. Only slight downside was the fact they didn’t cater for my wife’s special (allergy related) dietary requirements on three occasions.
