Australian East Coast Cruise

As we sail out of Station Pier in Port Melbourne, the Sapphire Princess will indulge your every whim. The ship has world-class gourmet dining, dazzling entertainment and so much more. Dance the night away, enjoy a live show or relax and rejuvenate your body and mind at the Day Spa.

• Watch the sun set as we set sail up the east coast of Australia
• There is so much to see and do when we disembark for a day exploring Sydney – a city or harbour tour, the zoo or maybe a swim at the famous Bondi Beach
• After another few days on board we arrive at Airlie Beach, the gateway to the Whitsundays. Once we disembark the possibilities are endless – explore the ocean or the rainforest
• Our next two stops are at Cairns and Port Douglas in the heart of tropical far north Queensland
• Willis Island is a scenic cruising site where we will slowly travel past while a knowledgeable lecturer points out significant sites you’ll be able to see from onboard. The island is home to a weather monitoring station
• On our return journey home we stop for the day at Moreton island, just off the coast of Brisbane
• Our final port of call is at Eden, a quaint coastal town on the south coast of New South Wales
• After 7 ports it is time for our final sail back into Station Pier
