Back on board your elegant ship this evening, enjoy a delicious dinner as you set sail throughout the night. BLD Day 23. Montgomery Reef, Doubtful Bay, Raft Point. Embark on an adventure today as the magnificent Montgomery Reef 'rises' out of the ocean as the tidal waters cascade down into the surrounding deep channels. Board your Zodiac to get up close to the reef's diverse marine life. Cruise through Doubtful Bay and travel ashore at Raft Point to visit the region's most significant Wandjina art site. BLD Day 24. Talbot Bay, Horizontal Falls, Buccaneer Archipelago. Talbot Bay is known for its massive 12-metre tides that create an amazing spectacle, the unique Horizontal Falls. Subject to tidal conditions, you will embark on an exhilarating ride through the falls on a jet boat. David Attenborough described the phenomena as "one the greatest natural wonders of the world". This is a fantastic location to keep your eyes open in the chance you may get to see some of the local Tawny Nurse Shark population. Later, head to the Buccaneer Archipelago, home to more than 800 islands. BLD Day 25. Lacepede Islands. Visit the Lacepede Islands, a series of low islands atop a platform reef. Board the Zodiacs and explore the island's lagoon, keeping an eye out for many species of marine birdlife including Australian Pelicans, frigatebirds, egrets, gulls and terns. The islands are also renowned as Australia's most significant breeding grounds for the Green Turtle. This evening, farewell new-found friends as you enjoy the Captain's Farewell Cocktails, followed by a delicious dinner. BLD Day 26. Disembark Ship, Broome.
