One Tide Charters

At One Tide Char­ter cruis­es have been designed for trav­ellers who still have a spark in their lives and are look­ing for a unique expe­ri­ence to adven­ture beyond stan­dard cruise itin­er­ary and explore rarely vis­it­ed and untouched parts of the Kim­ber­ley’s pris­tine wilder­ness coastline.

With a max­i­mum of 12 pas­sen­gers and 3 crew, One Tide Char­ters pride them­selves of mak­ing sure their clients get to see the best of the amax­ing coast­line. One Tide Char­ters com­menced oper­a­tions in April 1997. In Sep­tem­ber 1998 own­er / oper­a­tor Greg Prouse pur­chased their orig­i­nal char­ter ves­sel ​“White Light­ning” to offer extend­ed cruis­es to the Buc­ca­neer Archipelago. 

In Feb­ru­ary 2008 One Tide Char­ters took deliv­ery of their new char­ter ves­sel ​“Kim­ber­ley Explor­er”. Kim­ber­ley Explor­er has been designed exclu­sive­ly for cruis­ing the Kim­ber­ley coastline.

With a full length keel and shal­low draught, Kim­ber­ley Explor­er is capa­ble of sit­ting on the ground once the tide goes out, 

allow­ing pas­sen­gers to explore reefs and creek sys­tems at low water.

With a cruis­ing speed of up to 20 knots and long range fuel tanks, time spent explor­ing the coast­line is max­imised, ensur­ing pas­sen­gers get the most out of their time spent cruis­ing the Kim­ber­ley coastline. 

Essen­tial com­forts are well catered for with male & female show­ers and toi­lets (with hot and cold water).

With 1000 litres of water stor­age and a desali­na­tor, beach camp­ing while cruis­ing the Kim­ber­ley coast has just become a whole lot more appealing.

Your typ­i­cal day involves plen­ty of sight­see­ing , fish­ing, crab­bing, swim­ming and then enjoy­ing the tran­quil­i­ty of an open camp­fire as you bed down for the night on an iso­lat­ed beach.
