Evenings at anchor

We want to make your journey as easy as possible

Seven nights aboard Paspaley Pearl in the stateroom or suite of your choice, the expedition programme by boat, Zodiac and on foot, fishing with gear and guidance, and the kayaks, paddleboards and snorkelling gear on board. We set out exactly what the fare covers in your proposal.

Flights to and from Broome, hotel nights either side, transport to and from the ship unless the itinerary includes it, premium and à la carte drinks, laundry, travel insurance, which Pearl requires, and personal expenses.

We arrange the flights and a night in Broome before you board; Pearl asks guests to be aboard two hours before departure.
