16 nights · 24. October - 9. November 2026 · Cairns → Darwin
Le Soléal sails the reverse direction for sixteen nights, from Cairns to Darwin. The voyage runs through north-eastern Papua New Guinea and the north coast of West Papua to the eastern islands of Indonesia. Karst reefs, whale shark aggregations and tribal communities shape the legs. The expedition team interprets geology, anthropology and marine biology, while Zodiac tours and snorkelling encounters in the Coral Triangle provide the active framework. With 184 guests, a marina platform and premium all-inclusive service, the style remains personal.
