What's this trip about?

    The Tasmania cruises run by Coral Expeditions explore the Australia island state at the meeting point of the Southern, Indian and Pacific oceans. The pristine wilderness and national parks here teem with wildlife and rugged mountain ranges meet the sea with soaring coastal cliffs and crescent beaches carved by the elements. Amid this natural backdrop is intriguing colonial history, underpinned by a convict heritage and historic sites. Follow in the footsteps of colonial explorers to far-flung reaches of the island where tales of maritime adventures abound, preserved streetscapes are living museums, and world-class artists find inspiration at every turn. Shaped by a climate straddling the Roaring Forties latitudes, the Apple Isle has verdant valleys and hills of fertile pastures, vineyards and orchards. Emerging from centuries-old cellar doors and farm gates are award-winning cheeses, premium wines, craft beers and artisanal spirits inspired by the ample natural assets of Tasmania. Cruise to the edge of the world on the premium Coral Discoverer on an expedition that unites wombats with wine, beaches with brie, and convict ruins with craft beer in a palate-pleasing adventure cruise into the wild heart of Tasmania.Enjoy an unforgettable 10-night cruise through pristine wilderness and colonial history in Tasmania

Accommodation

During this premium adventure cruise, you will spend 10 nights on the Coral Discoverer. Launched in 2005, the Coral Discoverer set a new benchmark of sophistication in expedition cruising. It is a 72-passenger ship built to take you closer to unspoiled vistas in comfort, style and safety. The shallow draught and manoeuvrability of the ship allow it to reach some of the most remote and rarely visited coastlines and islands in Australia. The tender vessel, Xplorer, features a hydraulic lowering system and can seat all 72 passengers for excursions to beaches and rivers. Coral Discoverer is equipped with latest technology active stabilisers to ensure comfortable cruising in open waters and is fitted with modern safety and navigation equipment and wireless internet facilities. Built to international SOLAS standards and with one aim in mind: to create the ultimate small-ship cruising experience. It’s also Australian flagged and staffed entirely by an Australian and New Zealand crew. In 2016, a significant upgrade and refresh of the facilities brought the amenities to an even higher level. The Sun Deck, home to the circular Explorer Bar, is the hub of on-board community living. Guest accommodation also received a substantial upgrade with the addition of six Bridge Deck Balcony Staterooms, providing coveted inside-outside living quarters. All other Stateroom grades also received a full upgrade with updated bathroom fixtures, soft furnishings and artwork providing an even more comfortable stay on the Coral Discoverer. Bridge Deck Balcony Stateroom Located on the exclusive Bridge Deck close to the Lounge and Bridge The six spacious Bridge Deck staterooms are 20sqm (215sqft) Staterooms open onto private balconies for expansive ocean views Furnished with a sofa, desk, telephone and your choice of junior king or twin bedding Promenade Deck (Category A) Stateroom Encircled by a full-ship promenade The 19 spacious Promenade Deck (Category A) staterooms are 18sqm (195sqft) Featuring picture windows for expansive ocean views Furnished with a sofa, desk, telephone and your choice of junior king or twin bedding Promenade Deck (Category B) Stateroom – sole use only Located in the bow of the ship and encircled by a full-ship promenade The two Promenade Deck (Category B) staterooms are 15sqm (160sqft) Featuring picture windows for expansive ocean views Furnished with a desk, telephone and junior king bedding These rooms are allocated for sole use only Main deck (Category A) Stateroom Located close to the Dining Room The six spacious Main Deck (Category A) staterooms are 18sqm (195sqft) Featuring large, twin porthole windows for expansive ocean views Furnished with a desk, sofa, telephone and your choice of junior king or twin bedding Main Deck (Category B) staterooms Located close to the Dining Room The three spacious Main Deck (Category B) staterooms are 18sqm (195sqft) Featuring twin portholes for expansive ocean views Furnished with a desk, sofa, telephone and your choice of junior king or twin bedding Specific cabin types can be booked for sole use (subject to availability).
