Cruises to Perth

Why choose a cruise to Perth?

Fremantle is one of Australia’s most rewarding cruise ports — a working harbour with a distinct character, a short transfer from Perth’s city centre, and a natural gateway to Western Australia’s coastline. Sailings that arrive or depart here range from short coastal getaways of 4 nights through to longer voyages of 24 nights, with a median length of 14 nights. The great majority of sailings are in the Australian waters region, with a smaller number crossing into South East Asia and Indonesia — making Perth a port that connects you to some of the most varied cruising in the hemisphere.

Where do cruises to Perth sail from?

Sailings arrive into Perth (Fremantle) from several embarkation ports. The largest share departs from Sydney, with further options from Fremantle itself (round trips that start and end in Perth), Bali (Benoa), Brisbane and Singapore.

If you live in or near Perth, a round-trip departure from Fremantle means no flight at all — you drive or take a taxi to the terminal and you’re on board the same day. If you’re travelling from the east coast, a short domestic hop to Perth (or to one of the other embarkation cities) is a far more straightforward journey than the long-haul connections many international itineraries demand. For sailings that depart from Bali or Singapore, we can book the international flights, hotels either side and transfers as part of a single Cruise1st Package — nothing is left for you to arrange separately.

On one-way itineraries — which make up the majority of sailings — the voyage finishes in a different city from where it starts. A domestic flight connects the two ends, and our team can add that into your booking so the whole trip works as one joined-up holiday.

Which cruise lines sail to Perth (Fremantle)?

Princess Cruises is the most popular line for Perth sailings, with the largest number of departures. Regent Seven Seas Cruises follows with a strong selection of luxury itineraries, alongside Silversea, Oceania Cruises and Seabourn — all of which bring small, premium and ultra-luxury ships into Fremantle.

That mix is useful for a range of budgets and travel styles. Princess gives you the widest choice of departure dates and itinerary lengths, including round trips from Fremantle. The luxury lines — Regent, Silversea, Seabourn and Oceania — keep guest numbers low and inclusions high, which suits experienced cruisers who want a more intimate experience with less to arrange once on board.

Which ships sail to Perth?

Sapphire Princess is the headline ship for Perth sailings, carrying more departures than any other vessel. After a 2025 refit, the ship homeports in Fremantle for the 2027–28 seasons — which means Western Australians can board from their own backyard. The refit added the Crown Grill steakhouse and Makoto Ocean Sushi by Chef Makoto Okuwa as new specialty dining venues, and the ship runs MedallionClass® with OceanNow® delivery: you order food, drinks and services via a wearable Medallion, with no app required. See the full range of Sapphire Princess cabins and deck plans.

Grand Princess also sails under the Princess flag to Perth, with the Crown Grill (named Best Cruise Steakhouse by USA Today) and Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria as its specialty dining anchors. MedallionClass OceanNow delivery is too, and Movies Under the Stars® — a giant poolside screen with free popcorn and blankets — makes evenings on deck genuinely enjoyable. Review the Grand Princess cabins and deck plans if you’re choosing your grade.

For Regent Seven Seas, Seven Seas Navigator brings the line’s all-inclusive luxury to the Perth route. Regent positions itself around immersive exploration and an inclusive fare model — gratuities, fine dining, beverages and shore excursions are wrapped into the fare, so there is very little to pay on board. The Seven Seas Navigator cabins and deck plans show the Signature Suite SG at 79.1 m² — generous by any measure, with a separate living area and space for up to 5 guests.

Seabourn sends Seabourn Quest to Fremantle — an ultra-luxury ship for just 450 guests, where every suite comes with a private balcony, butler service and all fine wines and spirits. The near 1:1 crew-to-guest ratio shapes every interaction on board, and the Seabourn Square social hub replaces the traditional cruise desk with an open, café-style lounge at the centre of the ship. Browse Seabourn Quest cabins and deck plans to see the suite options. If you’re considering a last-minute booking, our last-minute Seabourn cruises page is worth checking.

Oceania Cruises’ Riviera is an intimate 1,250-guest ship with 800 crew members — close to one staff member per guest — and 6 gourmet restaurants all included in the fare, with no surcharges. The standout feature is The Culinary Center, the only hands-on cooking school at sea, with classes led by expert chefs. See Riviera cabins and deck plans for the full layout.

Silver Moon represents Silversea on this route, sailing with a personal butler included in every cabin and a fully all-inclusive fare that covers butler-serviced suites, unlimited wines and spirits, onboard gratuities and Wi-Fi. The Silver Moon cabins and deck plans are available if you want to compare suite configurations.

What cabin grades are available?

The range runs from well-positioned inside cabins through ocean-view and balcony options up to full suites, depending on the ship. Here is a snapshot of what is available on the two Princess ships — the lines with the highest number of sailings.

Sapphire Princess — see all grades on the Sapphire Princess deck plans page:

• Inside cabin IA (15.6 m², sleeps 4) — mid-deck position with central lift access; quieter than higher decks and steadier than lower ones.
• Premium Sea-view cabin O5 (18.3 m², sleeps 4) — a large panoramic window with a bow view brings natural daylight and a forward outlook that inside cabins can’t match.
• Balcony cabin B2 (25.7 m², sleeps 4) — a private balcony gives you your own outdoor space and direct sea air, unavailable in interior or ocean-view grades.
• Grand Suite S1 (123.5 m², sleeps 4) — the largest suite aboard, with a separate living room and dining area, at more than twice the size of Penthouse suites.

Grand Princess — full details on the Grand Princess deck plans page:

• Inside cabin IA (14.9 m², sleeps 4) — middle-deck location with minimal motion and easy access to lifts and facilities.
• Premium sea view O3 (19.1 m², sleeps 4) — floor-to-ceiling panoramic window with an unobstructed sea view and natural light directly into the cabin.
• Premium Balcony cabin B2 (25.5 m², sleeps 4) — floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors give more light and an open feel compared to standard balcony grades.
• Grand Suite S1 with private hot tub (67.8 m², sleeps 4) — the largest suite on board, with considerably more space than every other suite category.

For Seven Seas Navigator, the Signature Suite SG starts at 79.1 m² — a suite-only ship where even the entry grade is genuinely spacious.

What do the fares include?

What your fare covers depends on the cruise line and the tier you choose. Princess Cruises offers two main tiers for sailings. The standard fare (Princess Standard) covers the cruise itself, with Princess Plus and Princess Premier packages available to add — those bundles bring in beverages up to A$15 each, MedallionNet® Max Wi-Fi, casual dining meals, pre-paid crew appreciation, unlimited digital photos with prints, and reserved theatre seating. The Princess Plus fare includes all of that from the outset, which removes a lot of the on-board decision-making. Fare types such as last-minute and tactical offers are also available at certain times, so it’s worth asking our team what is current when you call.

On Silversea’s Silver Moon, the all-inclusive fare covers butler-serviced suites, exceptional dining, unlimited wines and spirits, onboard gratuities and Wi-Fi. An enhanced Plus fare adds a shore excursion credit based on voyage length, plus the option of a fully refundable deposit — useful if your plans are not yet fixed.

Regent Seven Seas wraps gratuities, fine dining, beverages and shore excursions into the fare as standard, so the headline price is a much closer reflection of the total cost than on lines where those items are added on separately.

Are there discounts available on cruises to Perth?

Some sailings carry reduced fares. Discounts reach up to 14% on a single departure, with most reduced sailings sitting at around 6% off the price previously listed for that cabin grade. If price is a factor in your choice, our team can check which sailings are currently reduced and whether the saving applies to the grade you want.

Why book your Perth cruise with Cruise1st?

Cruise1st’s Australian cruise experts are available seven days a week — before you book, while you choose a cabin grade, and when you want to know whether a particular fare tier suits your travel style. That kind of advice is what separates a specialist from booking directly: the cruise line’s own site will sell you the cruise, but it won’t tell you which grade on which deck is steadiest in a swell, or whether Princess Plus is worth adding for a 14-night itinerary.

Our Best Price Guarantee means that if you find the same sailing at a lower price elsewhere, we’ll match it. And if you want everything in one place, a Cruise1st Package wraps your cruise together with flights, hotels, transfers, tours and insurance — so a fly-cruise from Singapore or a one-way voyage from Sydney becomes a single booking rather than a collection of separately managed parts.

If you’re planning around a particular time of year, our Australia Christmas cruise deals for 2026 and Easter 2027 cruises from Sydney pages cover the peak seasons in more detail. For the broader Princess season, the Princess 2027–2028 season launch page is a good place to see what’s new across the fleet.

Cruises to Perth in the context of broader Australian sailing

Perth sits at the western end of the Australian cruise network, which means it connects naturally with itineraries that cover the country’s coastline from end to end. Australian cruises as a whole span a wide range of lines and durations, and Fremantle is increasingly a home port in its own right — not just a turnaround stop. If you’re comparing coastal Australian options with a view to adding a Christmas or festive sailing, the 2026 Christmas cruise deals around Australia and 2027 cruises from Brisbane pages give a sense of the season’s shape on the east coast too.
