9 Night Cruise sailing from Sydney roundtrip aboard Pacific Explorer.

The Pacific’s most cosmopolitan city, Noumea, is also its most French – and that means delicious cuisine! Our Shore Tours take you to the very best restaurants in town such as La Coupole.

Treat your tastebuds to authentic French croissants and cheeses while you try to pronounce ‘crêpe’. Fancy a bath in the ocean? If you don’t mind a little company, Lifou may be for you. The largest coral atoll in this group of islands, its bath-temperature waters are bursting with marine life. Above water, its diverse landscape of majestic cliffs, tropical forests and white sand beaches are not to miss.

Highlights of this cruise:

Sydney
Sydney is home to two of the world’s most famous landmarks – the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House, both perfectly situated on the magnificent harbour.

Noumea
All the flavour and ambience of a bustling, sophisticated provincial french town with the friendly charms, adventure and heavenly climate of the pacific islands.

Mare
The best kept secret of all of New Caledonia’s islands, Maré is about as close to paradise as any will ever come.

Mystery Island
This incredibly beautiful conglomeration of pure white sand, palm trees and coral reefs provides the perfect place to relax and unwind.

Mystery Island is a tiny, uninhabited islet in Vanuatu’s Tafea Province, officially charted under the indigenous name Inyeug. Other than an airstrip, built by United States Military personnel to serve the nearby island of Aneityum, Mystery Island only has a few huts for overnighters, modern amenities for cruise passengers and some trails that bisect the island.

Isle of Pines
It’s easy to see why Isle of Pines is commonly referred to as the jewel of the pacific. Its beauty is simply breathtaking.
