Cruise Itinerary

Brisbane offers a cosmopolitan mix of shopping, dining, history, arts, sightseeing and entertainment. Expereience the nearby theme parks or visit Australia Zoo.

Step ashore in the footsteps of Captain Cook and discover an unspoilt landscape fringed by sapphire seas. Stroll amongst the soaring pine trees, or take a guided tour of this former convict settlement. Norfolk Island is an historic destination for P&O Cruises as this was our first cruise port over 75 years ago.

This is Tonga to a T‘. If your idea of heaven involves perfect beaches, waving palms, clear blue waters teeming with colourful fish and fabulous coral, then you‘ve arrived!

Suva, Fiji‘s capital is on the south-eastern coast of the big island of Viti Levu. Suva is the country‘s political and administrative centre as well as the major port. Suva and its urban surrounds are home to half of Fiji‘s urban population, and it is one of the South Pacific‘s largest and most sophisticated cities, housing the University of the South Pacific, the fascinating Fiji Museum and many interesting colonial-era buildings. It‘s a multicultural city with many mosques, temples, churches and cultural centres. The Roman Catholic Cathedral (1902) is one of the city‘s most prominent landmarks. The waterfront area is very interesting, and the Suva Municipal Market is a must-see for visitors for its exotic fruits and vegetables, kava, fish and seafood, and spices. It has an exciting multicultural flavour, with vendors selling brightly coloured Indian sweets and savouries, and fruit drinks from glass tanks.

Dravuni is home to about 200 Fijian natives who live together in the small central village. As their guests you will discover what island living is all about. Nestled in the spectacular Kadavu group of islands, Dravuni normally provides perfect weather both day and night. For the adventurous a trek up the grassy slops of Dravuni‘s highest peak will give you a fantastic view of the ship and the surrounding islands. Don‘t forget your camera!

Vanuatu’s shining star, Vila, is the adventure capital of the Pacific. With its strong Melanesian culture and mix of traditional and modern attractions, Vila offers the best of everything from diving to bustling markets filled with local crafts. Have you ever been abseiling? What about down a 50-metre waterfall? Here, adventure-seekers get the once in a lifetime chance to do both, deep within the rainforest at Cascade Waterfall. If something a little tamer tickles your fancy, try a kayak paddle around Mele Bay. You won’t be disappointed.
