Cruise
Queensland’s tropical latitudes are perfect for touring by ship, and its rainforest-clad islands, coral reefs, warm waters and lively ports of call create unforgettable cruise itineraries and experiences. Queensland's Great Barrier Reef is the largest and most complex expanse of living coral on the planet, a brilliant archipelago home to an immense variety of fish, marine mammals, turtles and birds. Long revered as a diving and boating paradise, the reef is the largest marine park in the world and is fast developing a reputation as a premiere cruise destination. With more than 2,700 kilometres of South Pacific coastline (most of it harbouring the Great Barrier Reef) there are vast areas of Queensland coastline to explore.
With so many ways to sail away, the quality of cruising Queensland is matched only by its variety. From small, luxury liners that call on exclusive Great Barrier Reef islands, exciting expedition-class voyages or ultra-modern mega-ships where everything is perfectly laid out for you, Queensland offers a cruising experience to suit your style. Whether you prefer to experience cruising Queensland’s warm tropical waters as part of a round-the-world cruise or board a Queensland cruise once you’ve landed in Australia, again the choice is all yours.
