South Pacific Cruise

New Caledonia is one of the major cruise destinations from Australia.

Cruising is the ideal speed for relaxing travel and one of the best ways to discover New Caledonia – all year round. Sailing gently to the world’s largest lagoon and second largest coral reef, only 1500km east of Australia, renowned for the crystal clear waters and welcoming smiles. And it continually gets more exciting with new ports-of-call featuring modern passenger facilities and larger ships on the cruise calendar.

Visit colourful and cosmopolitan Noumea, the stunningly beautiful Isle of Pines – the Jewel of the Pacific, the Loyalty Islands and Emerald Bay, Poum and Hienghene in the north.

As you cruise to each port-of-call, you'll marvel at the incredible diversity and natural beauty of the islands. Once ashore you can unwind on a beautiful beach or explore the vibrant local culture and lush interiors.

At sea you’ll live life at a different pace, no traffic and no rigid routines.
