Coral Expeditions II is a 35 m (115 ft), expedition-style cruise ship, large enough to provide all the comforts of a much bigger ship, yet small enough to enable them to access reef and island sites inaccessible to other vessels.
The spacious, modern staterooms have ocean views, air-conditioning and private en suite. Each room is equipped for running electrical appliances, such as hair dryers and shavers, and there is a secure safe on board for your valuables, as well as phone and fax facilities.
Accommodating just 50 guests, the Coral Expeditions II has resort-style facilities, including a sundeck and spa, two air-conditioned lounges, and a cocktail bar for sunset drinks. All meals on the cruise are included, and are served buffet-style in the dining room.
For those who wish to know more about the reef, a comprehensive resource library features books and videos of the reef marine life and islands. Everything on board the Coral Expeditions II has been thought out, and designed to ensure you have a memorable and enjoyable experience of the Great Barrier Reef.
