South Pacific cruises from Sydney

Mostly 8 to 10-night round trips to New Caledonia and Vanuatu: Noumea, Lifou, Mystery Island and Port Vila come up most. Royal Caribbean's trips from late October 2027 and two Celebrity trips in 2028 add Royal Beach Club Lelepa in Vanuatu, longer trips take in Suva, Lautoka and Dravuni in Fiji, and a few go to Papua New Guinea. They sail in every month, most often in the southern summer.

Our South Pacific cruise guide covers New Caledonia, Vanuatu and Fiji: the ports, how the islands differ, and what to know before you go.

There are 65 such sailings on the board, running 8 to 21 nights, operated by Royal Caribbean International, Carnival Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruises, Princess Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, and Regent Seven Seas Cruises aboard Anthem of the Seas, Carnival Splendor, Celebrity Edge, Grand Princess, Carnival Adventure, Norwegian Spirit, Seven Seas Navigator, Royal Princess, and Voyager of the Seas.
