Captain Cook Cruises

From the Great Barrier Reef to the islands of Fiji, from the bays and beaches of Sydney Harbour to the outback vastness of the Murray River basin, Captain Cook Cruises draws on over 39 years of cruising knowledge to create unique and exciting travel experiences.

The Small Ship Advantage

Destinations – Far away and Close Up

Small ship cruising takes you far from the beaten track and close up to places no other kind of cruising can reach. Their ship’s small size means it can negotiate narrow waterways, shallow bays and quiet rivers where bigger ships cannot go.

Unlike big ships and large scale international ports, a small ship allows you to experience places where the nature, history and culture remain fresh, where the flood of tourists has not overrun them and will not overrun you. Places where you will meet and interact with the locals and discover how the waterway plays a vital role in their normal day to day lives.

Of course you still enjoy all the comforts larger ships provide: swimming pools, sun decks, bars, quality dining, massage and beauty treatments, entertainment and good company.

Individual Experience

Limited numbers onboard mean every guest is welcomed and known as an individual. That is why their crew-members have to be really special. Bright, skilled, often locally recruited, they are eager to share their extensive knowledge and make your small ship experience personal.

Because you are in a smaller group, there is time for learning and experiencing. Onboard and on-site experts provide fascinating insights into the history, landscape, biology and ecology of the regions we explore. Around our informal dinner tables, you can share your own adventures with new friends.

Active? It is up to You………

They encourage a hands-on approach, but always leave you in charge of your own activity level. If there is a headland to climb or a reef to snorkel, you are invited. If you want to take it easy by the onboard pool, just ask for a towel and maybe grab a thriller from the library.

The keys are informality and flexibility with the focus on making each experience as revealing and memorable as it can be.
