On this cruise we will visit ten of Australia's coastal cities plus a stop at Lombok, Indonesia and an
evening sail along Australia'a Kimberley coastline. Each city offers something different to see.
Virtually every city will have a zoo or animal preserve. Australia has many unique species and a
visit to at least one of these attractions is a must. However, you'l miss a lot of other fascinating
places if you try to visit all of them.
Australia's indigenous people, the Aborigines, have an ancient and wonderful culture. You will find
numerous opportunities to experience their culture, history and art. You will find such opportunities
in several ports. There are other historical sites worth visiting. Some museums describe the prison
colony origins. In Darwin you will find a museum featuring World War II history focusing on the
bombings in that city. The west coast of Australia offers the opportunity to examine the historic
pearl harvesting industry.
Australia's countryside exhibits flora and fauna seen nowhere else on the planet. You should take
every opportunity to acquaint yourself with it. Most tour operators choose routes to destination
attractions that maximize the opportunity to see native vegetation and wild life. Always keep your
eyes open.
While Australia's cities resemble those in your homeland, they too have many unique features.
You should take the opportunity to visit one of them if you possibly can.
