Top Tips for Choosing the Best Kimberley
Cruises If youve been considering a Broome
cruise, youre likely to be aware that there are
lots of options. Cruising the Kimberley coastline
can be a trip of a lifetime, allowing you to
reach some of the areas that are relatively
untouched and only accessible from the water.
So, with all this choice how do you choose the
best Kimberley cruises to explore this unique
region.
Work Out What You Have to See This seems simple,
but with so much to see and do, it can affect
your choice of Broome cruises. Kimberley
explorations can be tailored to suit different
preferences, so take a little time to research
the region and decide what you simply must see.
For example, while Broome to Darwin will allow
you to see some amazing sights, but it may not
include the Bungle Bungles or Mitchell Falls.
Remember that shorter routes will tend to
provide an opportunity to explore the coast in
more depth. Consider the Season The Kimberley
has two distinct seasons the wet season and the
dry season. The dry season runs from May to
October, while November to April is the wet
season. While this is a broad generalisation, it
does provide insight into when you should plan
your trip. The dry season in the Kimberley is
characterised by balmy days, easterly winds
and clear blue skies. The weather is stable, but
you can expect some chilly nights. So, while you
can enjoy beautiful weather during the day, you
will need to pack a jacket or warmer clothing
for the evenings. This differs greatly from the
wet season that can be highly unpredictable. This
is the hotter time of year, as low pressure is
formed to draw moisture from the water and
create lots of rain. This can cause huge cloud
masses and violent thunderstorms that are
impressive to watch. The different conditions
create a vastly different landscape. In the wet
season, plant life will be more lush and
vibrant, and waterfalls will be fast flowing.
However, you

need to be prepared for the unpredictable weather
conditions, so the water may be rough, and you
may get caught in rainstorms. Be Realistic About
Your Fitness Level While smaller boats can take
you closer to the shore to explore estuaries, you
need to be realistic about your fitness level.
Some cruises involve days spend going ashore
hiking through the wilderness. Most walks are not
endurance marathons, but rather need steadiness
on your feet to cover the pebbly or rocky ground.
So, if youve just had a replacement hip or have
some health difficulties, you need to consider
whether the itinerary is suited to your fitness
level. If this is the case, dont worry, youre
sure to find a cruise that allows you to sit on
the deck and watch the stunning sights. If
