Rowley Shoals
The Rowley Shoals are located approximately 260 kilometres (170 nautical miles) west north-west off the coast of Broome. Consisting of a chain of three coral atolls, the Rowley Shoals lie along the edge of one of the widest continental shelves in the world. The three atolls are Clerke Reef, Imperieuse Reef and Mermaid Reef and are very similar to each other in shape, dimension, and orientation. The three atolls have shallow, pristine lagoons that have an abundance of marine life and colourful coral, making it a must-see marine paradise for lovers of snorkelling, diving, and fishing.
The only way to reach the Rowley Shoals Marine Park is by boat and Ocean Dream is one of only several charter boats taking guests to this remote location. The best time of year to travel is during the “doldrums,” when there is a weather window of light winds and calm sea. Ocean Dream will take a maximum of 12 guests in 6 ensuite staterooms, making the Rowley Shoals the perfect west coast Private Charter destination.
Departure is from Broome around 6pm for an overnight steam. Guests will enjoy a delicious meal prepared by the onboard chef before settling in for the evening. Arrival the next morning to the Rowley Shoals is an adventure in itself as the vessel negotiates a narrow channel at high tide to reach the crystal deep blue lagoon. Brimming with sea life and prized for its pristine coral gardens, the following 5-7 days will be spent in an extremely remote and pristine marine sanctuary. Departing in the late afternoon on the final day, Ocean Dream will cruise through the night to arrive in Broome the following morning.
