Silversea Expeditions invites guests to discover a unique opportunity to experience the ancient wonders and thundering waterfalls of the Kimberley aboard Silver Discoverer on 10 or 11-day voyages travelling between Darwin and Broome. The Kimberley has experienced the wettest December on record, with Broome recording 410mm of rain in December (a 47% increase on the previous record in 1970), which is seven times greater than the normal rainfall of 58mm.
For the duration of Silversea's Expedition cruises in the Kimberley in March and April 2017, the famous Kimberley coast waterfalls, including King George River & Falls and Talbot Bay (Horizontal Falls) will thunder more spectacularly than ever before. The twin cascades of King George Falls are amongst Australia's highest, plunging over 80 metres. At Talbot Bay, the regions tides of close to 36-feet create an amazing spectacle. Depending on whether the tides are ebbing of flowing, guests can experience an exhilarating ride to the "Horizontal Falls".
Guests can expect to witness these extraordinary waterfalls, along with the rich history and wildlife of this region all aboard the elegant, warm and friendly Silversea vessel.
Amber Wilson, Managing Director Asia Pacific, says:
"The Kimberley voyages are an extraordinary experience that will amaze and delight. The contrast between lush flora and fauna, dramatic landscape and indigenous history is ideal for those seeking an unforgettable adventure. This season, with the tremendous December rainfall, will provide travellers with a once-in-a-lifetime viewing experience."
"The freshly refurbished Silver Discoverer is the epitome of casual elegance and sophistication, making it the perfect platform for exploring the untamed landscapes of the Kimberley. With a team of 11 experts hand-picked for their expertise and passion for the region guiding travellers throughout the voyage, this truly is a unique adventure".
These voyages feature incredible itineraries which include 10 or 11-day sea explorations of rugged coast, imposing rock formations and deep gorges departing from Benoa (Bali), Broome and Darwin. While in the Kimberley region, guests can: witness the spectacular tidal changes and semi-submerged world of Montgomery Reef; discover ancient and mysterious rock art; spot the White-bellied Sea Eagle, Osprey, Brahminy Kite or Peregrine Falcon; view King George's towering twin falls; and photograph the dramatic tiger-striped Bungle Bungle Range.
"Silversea prides itself on offering a luxurious cruising experience through all-suite-accommodations, butler service, complimentary spirits and fine wines, Wi-Fi and world-class cuisines" added Wilson.
