True North

The multi-awarded North Star Cruises Australia cruises around the Australian coastline, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and the Solomon Sea. Instead of casinos and swimming pools, True North has exciting itineraries with a variety of daily activities to choose from. And because of True North‘s unique shallow-draft design, guests need only step through their cabin doors to experience their destination!

ENTERTAINMENT

Daily activities include scenic walks, helicopter flights, fishing, snorkelling, culture, picnics, nature, diving and exploring. Some cruises have special guests: naturalists, artists, photographers or winemakers.

DINING

Signature meals include freshly caught barramundi and giant black-lip oysters. Have a ‘heli-picnics’ while enjoying a wide variety of seafood including shrimp, squid, baked fish, pearl meat and smoked salmon. There are also plenty of meat dishes, fresh vegetables, and garden salads!

FACILITIES

True North features six expedition vessels and a helicopter. In addition, there are vantage points on board, including a forward observation lounge, the ship’s lounge and an alfresco bar. A laundry/valet service is also available at a minimum cost.
