Continue below for some recommendations of things to do on your Seabourn Australia and New Zealand cruise:

Then you’ll relax as the guide points out some of Melbourne’s most beautiful attractions, including St. Paul’s Cathedral, the Treasury Gardens, and Parliament House. After a fun day of exploring Australia’s history, you’ll complete your tour with a four-course lunch onboard the famous Colonial Tram Car Restaurant.  

• Wine Tasting in the Barossa Valley (Adelaide, Australia) Calling all wine aficionados! On this tour, you’ll visit the heart of Australia’s most important wine producing region for a fun day of wine tastings, gourmet food, and stunning scenery.  

• Kayak Exploration of Boston Bay (Port Lincoln, Australia) Enjoy a different view of Port Lincoln when you embark on a scenic kayaking trip. You’ll explore the shores and coves of the vast Boston Bay. Then you can explore Porter Bay and look for marine and bird life along the way. The smell of the salt water, the serenity of the kayaks gliding on the water, the ocean breeze rustling your hair – is there a better way to spend a summer’s day?  

• Explore Ancient Kakadu (Darwin, Australia) You’ll begin your day with a private flight from Darwin to Kakadu. Then when you land at the UNESCO World Heritage Site, you’ll be greeted by two UNESCO ranger guides. You’ll learn about the important relationship between the land and the Aboriginal people, and you’ll see artifacts, arts and crafts, and hunting weapons. Plus, you’ll journey into the wetlands where you’ll have the opportunity to see birds, snakes, and crocodiles.

• Munduk Highlights (Benoa (Bali), Indonesia) Begin this fascinating tour with a stop at the famous Sangeh Monkey forest, known for its towering nutmeg trees and resident monkeys that frolic among the trees – enjoy the sight while cooling off in the shade. Next you’ll head to Lake Bratan, which is 4,000 feet above sea level and in the crater of Mt. Catur. Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant in the village of Bedugul, and then head back to the port – stopping at a few local fruit and vegetable markets along the way.

A First Look at Seabourn's New Expedition Voyage Through the Kimberley, Australia

By Meena Thiruvengadam

Sponsored by Seabourn

Expedition ships aren’t just made for cruising the polar regions . In fact, next year Seabourn is planning one of the most epic journeys aboard its newest expedition vessel, Seabourn Pursuit —and the voyages are nowhere near the poles.

The new sailings are through the Kimberley , a remote and rugged region of Western Australia . Along the untamed coastline and interior lie some of the most unique land formations and wildlife on the planet: Vertiginous cliffs churn with waterfalls, which give way to rivers where crocodiles swim. A few miles away, red rock canyons morph into tropical savannas that are home to rare bird species that nest in the palm and Boab trees.

The Kimberley was one of the earliest settled parts of Australia, but today, fewer than 40,000 people call this region home. (Only three local towns in the area have populations over 2,000.) It’s a place to truly go off the grid and reconnect with nature.

Seabourn’s voyages , which begin sailing in June 2024, will offer unprecedented access to the region. Travelers can board a Zodiac or kayak and enjoy the Kimberley’s unspoiled clear water, home to coral reefs and marine life like sea turtles, dolphins, octopuses, even humpback whales. On shore, they can marvel at Aboriginal rock art and learn about the history of the region’s gold rush. Plus, see the spot where five rivers come together to flow into the Timor Sea; soak in a natural swimming hole; or take a sunset camel ride on a beach.

There’s no better way to explore the wild region than aboard the new Seabourn Pursuit . With room for just 264 guests, the ship will feel more like a private yacht than a luxury expedition ship, but with many more conveniences. Guests on board can take a dip in the pool, spend the afternoon on the sundeck, or relax in a sauna or hot tub with a view. Enjoy a multi-course dinner at one of seven onboard dining venues as you sail past unforgettable Australian fjords. Or, order in and enjoy a delicious meal from the comfort of your spacious suite—which comes with a private veranda for spectacular views of the magical scenery that makes this place so special.

Ahead of the launch of the new itineraries, here’s an inside look at what passengers on board will experience. Get ready for 10 glorious days of expedition cruising you’ll never forget.

Explore the King George River

There is no better way to see the glorious King George River than to sail between the towering red rock cliffs that flank this waterway in Western Australia. More than 500 animal species call this area home, including dozens of varieties of birds and a special type of kangaroo. The 70-mile river plunges over a sandstone cliff to create King George Falls, the region's highest twin waterfalls. Keep an eye out for secluded beaches and wildlife.

Take exclusive tours through natural wonders

For a close-up view of these magnificent falls, you’ll need to board a Zodiac, as they aren’t accessible by road. Guided by expedition crew, passengers will take a thrilling ride through the canyon leading up to the falls, which are more than 300 feet high. There’s also rock art on the surrounding cliffs from the Indigenous Balanggarra people, who regard the falls as sacred.

Spot rare wildlife

Don’t let the name fool you. There’s more to the Malcolm Douglas Crocodile Park than crocodiles. The wilderness park’s biggest draw may be its afternoon crocodile feedings, but look around and you’ll see kangaroos, dingos, and a variety of birds including the great egret, a tall, long-legged wading bird with an S-shaped neck that lives near water. To enter the park, you’ll need to walk through the jaws of a giant saltwater crocodile—don't worry, it's a replica.

Experience marine life habitats

Head 230 miles north of Broome to a land that time has forgotten. Remote Kuri Bay is a picturesque pearl-producing town with gorgeous views, an abundance of wildlife, and a tiny population of humans. Kuri Bay is an excellent place for spotting nurse sharks, one of the dozens of types of sharks found off the coast of Australia. Nurse sharks can be up to nine feet long and weigh as much as 130 pounds.

Navigate the ultra unique Talbot Bay

Talbot Bay is home to the Kimberley’s most interesting landscapes including spectacular rock formations, extraordinary coral reefs, lush mangroves, and a natural wonder best described as a horizontal waterfall. Most waterfalls cascade vertically, but here tides push intense currents between narrow gorges to create a horizontal effect. If you’re looking for turtles, this spot is for you. It’s home to Turtle Reef where you’re sure to spot an abundance of sea turtle species.

Coast along a river through a UNESCO biosphere reserve

The mouth of the Hunter River is at the edge of a large, unusual rock formation that’s become a popular photo spot. The river, located inside Prince Regent National Park, has two waterfalls, each of which drops nearly 300 feet. Lower parts of the river wind through red rock cliffs and mangrove forests.

Become immersed in a prehistoric era

Western Australia is a place where dinosaurs once roamed freely, leaving behind several sets of tracks to provide it. The tracks of up to seven different dinosaur species can be seen in the Kimberley. Look for them at low tide around Cable Beach, Reddell Beach, and Gantheaume Point, pictured here, which in addition to dinosaur prints, is known for its sandy beaches and red rock cliffs.

Soak in views to last a lifetime

The only thing better than a gorgeous sunset is a gorgeous sunset in a remote national park at the edge of the Australian continent. Purnululu National Park in the Kimberley is home to several massive beehive-shaped sandstone formations that make up the Bungle Bungle Range and is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There may be no better place to take in an unforgettable Western Australian sunset.

Seabourn Opens Bookings for Shorter 2026 World Cruise Segments

Seabourn has opened for booking nine shorter segments from its 2026 “ Ring of Fire: Hidden Gems” world cruise .

Guests who sign on for the entire world cruise will spend 129 days aboard Seabourn Sojourn, visiting 63 destinations in 14 countries along the way. The cruise starts in Los Angeles on January 6 and ends in Vancouver on May 15. 

But for travelers who don’t want to commit to the full voyage, Seabourn is offering shorter itineraries that range from 10 to 49 days long. 

For instance, guests can spend 39 days traveling from Sydney to Hong Kong during the “Coral Coast: Circumnaviation & Sapphire Seas” leg of the journey, or 22 days sailing from Tokyo to Vanoucer on the “Golden Garndes & Glaciers” itinerary.

“Our 2026 world cruise aboard Seabourn Sojourn will be a remarkable voyage visiting destinations throughout an impressive portion of the Pacific,” says Natalya Leahy, president of Seabourn. “This region will feature extraordinary cultural and culinary experiences as well as scenic natural wonders for guests to create memorable Seabourn Moments."
