Snorkel in crystal clear waters
If you have found yourself fantasising about swimming in azure blue waters ASAP, APT’s Small Ship Expedition cruise Colours of the Coral Coast will make bring your daydreams to life.
This special tour along Western Australia’s coastline touches on the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Reef, where you can dive amongst some of nature’s most beloved marine animals, sea turtles and whale sharks.
And if that wasn’t enough for the memory bank, APT guests will also get up close with the famous dolphins at Monkey Mia, yet another gem of WA boasting a picture-perfect stretch of turquoise sea.
Travel a remote and unspoilt coastline
The advantage of APT’s boutique size small ship MS Caledonian Sky is being able to get up close and personal to Australia’s breathtaking coastline, and trust us when you visit the Kimberley Coast, you are going to want to have the best seat in the house.
The signature Kimberley Cruise is a must for anyone looking to have their breath taken away, offering an itinerary of ‘must-sees’ including the phenomenon that is Montgomery Reef, an extraordinary spectacle transformed by some of the biggest tidal changes on Earth.
Plus, with brand new itineraries released for the new year, there are even more secluded and pristine regions to explore in style.
Spend more time with nature (and adorable wildlife)
After too much inside time watching cute cat videos online, there is nothing more invigorating than being surrounded by the natural world and living, breathing, wildlife.
New for 2022, APT is offering the Subantarctic Islands Expedition, the perfect cruise for recharging and returning to nature… whilst experiencing the wonders of both New Zealand’s North and South islands of course.
The ship’s onboard naturalists will ensure you never miss a moment to marvel, including a special introduction to the island’s most lovable residents; King penguins, sea lions and elephant seals.
And if that isn’t awe-inspiring enough, a visit to the Milford Sound fjord area should do the trick.
Delight in gourmet food, and even better wine!
What is life without good food and wine? We don’t know, and on an APT cruise, we definitely won’t find out!
