If you plan on visiting a remote Aboriginal community, you need to check with the community before leaving, to learn if there’s any restrictions on entry and make sure you have necessary approval before travelling. Restrictions on entering remote Aboriginal communities have now lifted, however, communities may continue to enforce their own restrictions for entry. There are more than 200 remote Aboriginal communities in Western Australia across the Midwest, Gascoyne, Pilbara, Goldfields and Kimberley regions. WA encourages all visitors on cruise ships to take a RAT prior to shore excursions and follow recommendations on mask wearing in WA to help protect local communities. Please follow all guidelines put in place by your cruise ship and continue to engage in COVID-19 safe behaviour, both onboard and during shore excursions. WA has adopted the Eastern Seaboard and Western Australia protocols, which provide cruise ships with policy guidelines about how to manage COVID-19 restrictions and outbreaks on board. If you are entering WA via cruise ship, guidelines are in place to keep you and our community safe from COVID-19.
