About the Vessel

The Newest Addition

Launched in 2021, Coral Geographer is the newest and largest vessel in the Coral Expeditions fleet. At 113.7 metres and accommodating up to 120 guests, she offers the most cabin variety and the most spacious public areas of any Coral Expeditions ship.

Like her fleet-mates, Coral Geographer operates with a shallow draft and carries the purpose-built Xplorer tender — allowing access to gorges, tidal rivers and remote shores that larger ships simply cannot reach. Her expedition team of naturalists, historians and marine biologists bring the Kimberley to life through daily lectures and guided shore excursions.

Coral Geographer is the only vessel in the fleet to operate the Coral Frontiers and Kimberley Icons itinerary — a water-based voyage that ventures to the remote outer reefs of Ashmore, Scott Reef and the Rowley Shoals.
