GOURMET GETAWAY 3 night DETAILED ITINERARY
OUR APOLOGIES - THIS CRUISE IS NOT AVAILABLE IN 2008
A relaxing 'taster' of the Kimberley's wonders with all the delights of our superb cuisine and that famous Red Sky service
| Day 1 | An early departure from Broome for a scenic flight over the aquamarine waters of the Buccaneer Archipelago to arrive at a remote location. Board the tender ‘Sailor’s Delight’ to transfer to ‘Red Sky at Night’ where we welcome you aboard. After settling in to your home for the next 3 nights, a special trip to see the Horizontal Waterfalls, raging tidal waters through small gaps in the cliffs then we cruise to a forgotten corner of Talbot Bay to our secret reef waterfall, exposing as the tide recedes, tiered cascades tumbling into a clear pool. View sharks, trevally, tropical fish, coral, clams, turtles and lots more. Cruise to a hidden inland sea for a day of exploring with gorges, one home to a large crocodile, another with waterfall and short climb to a pool and rainforest. Fishing at a very interesting rock bar to catch dinner before returning to Red Sky for our complimentary ‘Mango Daiquiris’ |
| Day 2 | An early start to travel with the outgoing tide to anchor at Shelter Bay. Another exposed inland reef. We walk on this one and marvel at the variety of corals and reef life. Head to our own special rainforest with its warm pool under a canopy of leaves and a waterfall. After lunch, a short cruise to anchor in the lee of spectacular sandstone cliffs. Throw in a line to supply the galley for dinner. |
| Day 3 | Photo opportunities with the morning sun on the cliffs mirrored in the waterways. Explore the mangrove creeks as the tide floods and be amazed at the variety of life. Dodge the crocodiles while mudcrabbing. Just before the turn of the tide, we head north with whirlpools and tide skirted islands. cruising past Koolan Island with its scarred mine face and on to Yampi Sound. A delightful swim this afternoon and collect plate sized black lipped oysters from the rocks at low tide and maybe fishing on the reef before returning to Red Sky for a sheltered anchorage. |
| Day 4 | A relaxing breakfast before our farewells to return to civilisation on the seaplane. |
Getting back to nature has never been this civilised
