We cruised early August 2022, Wyndham to Broome. The whole experience was so memorable. Every day is extraordinarily varied. The following day’s activities with various options, are communicated the evening before. The Skipper on our trip, Bronson, has planning around weather, tides,position & variables, always moving flexible. A whale up ahead, we stop & observe.
A small crew of very competent people, make a terrific team of knowledgeable, responsible
Boat people. Always prepared to assist any guests. The small fast Tenders, with safety first for everyone, with non restrictive life vests, gives a freedom to leave Eco Abrolhos main boat. These excursions are Eco Abrolhos’s
Drawcard. Shallow draughts make for access to inaccessible waterways. River systems, the waterfalls, cliffs, plants & animals, birds, crocodiles, Ancient Indigenous Art sites both Gwion Gwion & Wandjina. A historical WW 11 aircraft remains. Safe swimming holes, after a bit of a clamber! Fishing, Crabbing,all opportunities.
Montgomery Reef & Talbot Bay unique in their beauty. Keeping guests well catered for,Chef Johnnie created wonderful varied meals, several with the ultra fresh fish just caught.
From the Ocean, the Kimberley is so Special.
Wow what a trip! The beauty of the Kimberley landscape, the cultural experience, the amazing rock art, I don’t know where to start. The boat is not fancy, really comfortable, more than enough but not a luxury cruise. If you are more worried about a fancy cabin than the experience of the Kimberley then this isn’t your cruise. But if you want amazing knowledgeable crew (most especially Grant Streeter, the skipper) and an ability to get into areas that the big fancy ships can’t then Eco is for you. We blasted off several times a day in our tinnies to discover waterfalls, cliffs, rock art, crocodiles, fishing etc etc etc. The Montgomery reef and Horizontal Falls are probably what drew me to the cruise in the first place but although they were every bit as amazing as I’d hoped, they were only a small part of the wonder of the Kimberley. We’re now booking to go on the Eco to the Abrolhos. Can’t wait. Thanks Grant, Josh, Luke, Giulia, Liam, Scarlet, Ethan, Tom, Haydo, and not forgetting the one who kept us fed with his amazing cooking (those scones!) Conor. Thanks to you all for a magical trip.
