Year 3

Year Three Itinerary


Below is a list of the major places we will visit during year three of our voyage.

Australia (Southeast Coast)

New South Wales

We start the new season in Port Stephaens, and head north up the coast, back to Coffs Harbour, then further north to Yamba, Ballina, Beggera Waters, and finally, Brisbane.

Y3A

Australia to the Great Barrier Reef

Queensland

From Brisbane, we head north along the coast, skipping way up to the start of the Great Barrier Reef.  We go offshore here for some scuba diving on the beginning of the reef at Hixson Cay Reef.

Y3B

Australia Great Barrier Reef (S)

Queensland (Central)

After some diving on the Great Barrier Reef, we head back in to the mainland at Ball Bay to reporvision, before sailing on to the Whitsunday Islands. Then we sail on to another section of the the Barrier Reef before returning to the mainland to visit Townsville. 

Y3C

Australia Great Barrier Reef (N)

Queensland (North)

We may head out to Holmes Reef, weather permitting, or head up the coast, north, but either way we will visit Cairns. Then we head north, with a possible stop at Osprey Reef, or sticking with the coast, on our way north to Thursday Island at the top of eastern Australia.  We clear out of the country at that island.

Y3D

Indonesia (Eastern)

Raja Ampat

We clear in at Tual City and then work out way north to the southern and norther Raja Ampat area for one of the top three scuba diving destinations in the world.  After that, we head southwest to Ambon.

Y3E

Indonesia (Central)

Komodo Island, Bali, and other islands.

We sail west through the Java Sea, stopping to see Komodo Dragons, and then some stops in Bali before hitting some small islands on our way toward the Sunda Strait.  

Y3F

Sumatra and Thailand

Phang Nga Bay

Going past Jakarta, we plan to head out through the Sunda Strait to the Mentawai Islands and sail up the western coast of Sumatra to Sabang. We check out of Indonesia at that port and head for Thailand to visit islands and other locations in the Andaman Sea.  This route avoids the trip up the Malacca Straits, which are known for PTCs: pirates, trash, and Cargo ships!  The Mentawai Islands are much nicer!
