CRUISING MILESTONE
The launch of a new ship and a
pioneering circumnavigation
of Australia are part of Coral
Expedition’s 35th birthday plans.
Words: Renee Cluff

Australia’s pioneering small cruise expedition
company Coral Expeditions is embarking on
new adventures as it rings in its 35th year. Since
1985, the Cairns-based cruise company has been
delighting passengers with unique experiences
in some of the most remote and fascinating
destinations in the world. From small beginnings
with one ship touring the Great Barrier Reef, it now
operates four state-of-the-art, purpose built small
ships that can be found exploring the northern
waters of Australia, to the rugged coastline of
Tasmania, New Zealand’s Fiordland and tiny
remote Pacific and Indonesian islands.
