If you have always wondered what the underwater world is like or, if you have been diving all your life – you have come to the right place! True North features instantaneous filling facilities for SCUBA cylinders, complimentary snorkelling equipment and experienced divemasters. A marine biologist is normally included in the ship’s compliment when visiting coral environs. Their schedule includes some of the world’s most revered coral habitats including The Rowley Shoals, Ningaloo Reef, The Great Barrier Reef & the Coral Triangle, to name a few.

The Rowley Shoals consist of 3 shelf atolls and feature more than 300 square kilometres of undisturbed coral habitat. The diversity and densities of both coral and fish life is breathtaking. The water temperature is a consistently inviting 26 degrees and divers often encounter 40 metre visibility. However, the area’s stand-alone quality is that visitors to ‘the Rowleys’ generally do not see another boat! Even today, the Shoals’ remoteness means that less than 500 people a year are fortunate enough to give testimony to their brilliance. A ‘bucket list’ experience for the most discerning snorkelers and divers.

Dive & snorkel on the West Coast Explorer during March. In September, True North visits the Rowley Shoals or for a shorter itinerary dedicated to the crystal blue waters of the northwest on the Coral Atoll itinerary. Join True North II to see breathtaking worlds underwater, to magnificent palm lined white beaches on the Great Barrier Reef Ultimate.
