9 Day Vanuatu & New Caledonia Cruise
This 9-Day Vanuatu & New Caledonia Cruise is a round-trip cruise departing from Sydney and exploring tropical islands in the South Pacific. The cruise begins with an afternoon departure from Sydney before spending the first two days at sea, giving guests time to explore the ship’s entertainment, dining, pools and relaxation areas. Onboard, passengers can enjoy features like comedy shows, waterslides, spa facilities and multiple restaurants while travelling toward the islands.
The cruise visits three island destinations: Lifou, Mystery Island, and Noumea. Spending about a full day at each to explore beaches, snorkel, experience local culture, or join shore excursions. Lifou is known for its coral reefs and white-sand beaches, Mystery Island offers a remote tropical experience, and Noumea blends French-influenced culture with markets and coastal attractions. After the islands, two relaxing sea days lead back to Sydney, creating a balanced South Pacific getaway with both adventure and onboard leisure.
The Itinerary

Local villagers arrive to sell handmade souvenirs, jewellery, and fresh tropical fruit at small island markets.

Visitors can explore waterfront promenades, relax at beaches like Anse Vata, or enjoy French cafés and bakeries around the city.
