Cruise Itinerary Highlights
Itinerary Overview
Perth (Fremantle) โ Broome โ Kimberley Coast โ Darwin โ Cairns โ Willis Island โ Brisbane โ Sydney
- Scenic Cruising: Kimberley Coast
- No. of Ports: 4
- Sea Days: 10
Broome
| Cable Beach stretches 22 kilometres of pindan-red cliffs meeting turquoise water – one of the most striking coastlines in the country. Time it right and you might catch the Staircase to the Moon rising over Roebuck Bay. |
Kimberley Coast
| This is remote Australia at its most dramatic – ancient gorges, tidal waterfalls, and coastline that sees more saltwater crocs than tourists. Most people only ever see it from a ship, which makes a port call here genuinely rare. |
Darwin
| A small city with a frontier feel – Darwin punches above its weight with a great food scene, a fascinating wartime history, and sunsets over the Timor Sea that are hard to beat. The Mindil Beach Sunset Market is worth timing your afternoon around. |
Cairns
| Cairns is the jumping-off point for the Great Barrier Reef, and a morning snorkel or dive on the outer reef is the obvious move. The rainforest-meets-reef setting makes it unlike anywhere else on the itinerary. |
Brisbane
| Brisbane has quietly grown into one of Australia’s most liveable cities, with a riverfront you can actually use and a food and culture scene that surprises most first-timers. It’s a comfortable last stop before Sydney – or a reason to arrive a few days early. |

Sapphire Princess – Ship Overview
Sapphire Princess is a well-loved mid-sized ship that rewards passengers who appreciate space, variety, and a crew that genuinely seems to enjoy their work โ without the chaos that comes with the mega-ships.
Dining
| The main dining rooms do the classics well, and the 2025 drydock added two genuinely good reasons to splash out โ Crown Grill for serious steak and Makoto Ocean for Edomae-style sushi with truffle salmon and snow crab temaki. You won’t run out of options. |
Entertainment
| The Piazza is the social hub of the ship – there’s nearly always something happening there, and it’s the kind of space where an hour disappears without you noticing. Movies Under the Stars on the top deck is a genuine highlight on those warm northern Australia nights. |
Wellness
| The Lotus Spa covers the full range – massages, facials, a thermal suite – and the fitness centre is well-equipped with classes included in your fare. Book a treatment on a port day, and you’ll often pay less for it. |
Sapphire Princess Cabins
The cabins on Sapphire Princess are comfortable without being flashy – well-proportioned, sensibly laid out, and the balcony options on a northern Australia run make real sense when you’re waking up to the Kimberley coast.
