South
Pacific Cruises are the most popular cruises iCruise sell.
As cruise specialists in the region iCruise often secures exclusive
South Pacific cruise deals. Apart from very competitive prices, we
also have in-depth knowledge of the various cruise ships and a
comprehensive understanding of the cruise destinations.
The
main cruise destinations of the South Pacific include Fiji and her
islands (including Yasawa-I- Rara), Tahiti and her islands (including
Bora Bora, Morea, Huahine, Raiatea ), Rarotonga, Noumea, Vanuatu,
Mystery Island, Isle of Pines, Lifou, Poum, Norfolk Island - many of
the smaller islands are relatively remote which has been an advantage
in keeping this pristine part of the world from becoming exploited.
Cruising is also the only way of accessing many of these islands.
The
advantages for New Zealanders on adventuring on a South Pacific
cruise are many. Firstly the destination is very accessible -
gateways for departures are out of Auckland, Sydney and Brisbane
meaning you can be on a international cruise visiting multiple
destinations virtually from your doorstep, if not a short flight
away.
By
far the biggest cruise operator in the South Pacific is P&O
Cruises and
Princess Cruises based in Australia. The onboard costs on
their 4 ships (Pacific Sun, Pacific Dawn, Sun Princess and Dawn
Princess) are in Australian dollars and very affordable in comparison
to some of the other overseas operators. What is called the onboard
product (the styles of cuisine, entertainment and activities) are
also geared to the Australasian market making it the ideal home away
from home for Antipodeans and an authentic experience for the
international traveller from further afield.
Outside
P&O Cruises and Princess Cruises there are a number
of other cruise lines present in the South Pacific - Bora Bora
Cruises, Paul Gaguin, Aranui 3 and Windstar in Tahiti, Blue Lagoon
Cruises in Fiji and a host of cruise lines around the coast of
Australia – Orion Expedition Cruises, Coral Princess Cruises, True
North, Classic International Cruises Funchal and Princess Daphne to
name a few. Between them they provide a great variety of ship sizes
from 50 passengers up to 1900 passengers and something to suit all
budgets for those searching the ideal South Pacific Cruise.
