When it comes to Ponant Australia Cruises few companies have the experise that BlueSun Cruises possesses. We have been selling and promoting Kimberley cruises longer than almost any travel company.
Australia is defined by the vastness of its space long unexplored. It is largely an untamed country with striking contrasts between the reflections of the ochre lands, the tender green of the eucalyptus forests, the deep blue of the ocean and the luminous white of the beaches and cliffs. From north to south, this island-continent bordered by the Great Barrier Reef, the largest coral reef in the world, is a must-visit destination with wild landscapes, as well as ancient myths and traditions of the Aboriginal people stretching back thousands of years. Amid the harsh and beautiful lanscapes, an incredible world of wildlice and endemic fauna flourishes too.
Australian cruises have it all: aboriginal culture, vast expanses of red land, wild regions, isolated beaches… The country of kangaroos is among the ten largest countries in the world, but also among the most special. During a cruise in Australia , approach essential stopovers, between cultural discoveries, dynamic cities and enigmatic nature.
Melbourne
Vibrant Sydney might overshadow it, but Melbourne has a distinguished side that makes it irresistible. While being anchored in the 19th century, the one that is nicknamed the "Paris of the antipodes" retains a charm of yesteryear. You only have to stroll through the alleys of the Royal Botanical Gardens or the elegant Carlton Gardens and admire the Royal Exhibition Center, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to be convinced. Unless you prefer the calm of the banks of the Yarra River or revel in the animation of Saint-Kilda beach, with its open-air cinema and its century-old amusement park.
Australia's South Coast
From Melbourne to Fremantle, sumptuous rugged wilderness stretches along the Great Ocean Road and the beautiful Great Australian Bight. From the spectacular cliffs of the 12 Apostles guarded by rock formations rising from the waves, to the white sand beaches of Esperance Bay, passing through the mysterious caves of the Limestone Coast , the exceptional vineyards of Coonawarra or the dunes from Kangaroo Island , the south coast seduces as much for its breathtaking panoramas as for its tasty local products with Mediterranean accents: fine wines, seafood, honey, olives, sheep's cheese, capers and chestnuts. A gripping and surprising experience.
Tasmania
With more than a third of its territory classified as nature reserves, national parks or UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Tasmania is a paradise for nature and food lovers. It is also nicknamed “the natural state”. From the charming village of Beauty Point, it is thus possible to discover the fertile valley of the Tamar river and its famous wine route, ranked among the 10 most prestigious in the world. To the north, in Bass Strait, the wild shores of King Island, a surfer's paradise, are also renowned for the delicate flavors of local farm produce.
Darwin
The largest city in northern Australia, Darwin is relatively new, but cosmopolitan. It is estimated that 50 ethnic groups rub shoulders there. It is also on Smith Street that we find a large number of shops offering Aboriginal art souvenirs. Also unmissable: the Northern Territory Museum and Art Gallery. This cultural space presents the culture and rituals of these first inhabitants of Australia. Finally, for moments of relaxation, go to Mindil Beach. This popular local beach is the ideal place for a swim, admire a flamboyant sunset or browse its designer market.

The Kimberley is often considered Australia's wildest region and this is where BlueSun Travel is in its element. We are one of the world's leading Kimberley cruise experts. From the Bungle Bungle massif with its beehive and gray streaked sandstone domes to the natural phenomenon of the horizontal waterfalls, passing through the twin falls of King George or the open-air galleries of Aboriginal art, the Kimberley is an adventure.
