Exciting Cruises to the South Pacific

On a South Pacific cruise with Celebrity, you'll venture to remote ports with thousands of years of history and culture layered into a natural landscape of breathtaking beauty. Travel to pristine beaches with turquoise lagoons, warm white sand, and natural splendor found in very few other places on Earth.

Explore Papeete and its iconic landscape made famous by artists such as Paul Gauguin. In Lautoka, Fiji, take a catamaran to an exquisite South Sea island for a day of snorkeling and exploring pristine beaches. During your stop in Raiatea, explore one of the most sacred sites in Polynesia, Taputapuatea Marae, an ancient temple and one-time site of religious ceremonies. Uncover a world of rich history and natural wonder on a captivating cruise to the South Pacific.

South Pacific Cruise Highlights

It's no secret that the islands of the South Pacific are home to some of the world’s best beaches. On the island of Papeete in Tahiti, you'll find Matavai Bay, where white sand and aquamarine waters make for the perfect place to relax. In Fiji, head to Lautoka's Vunabaka Bay for an unforgettable experience snorkeling over brilliant coral reefs. Raiatea boasts the immaculate, unspoiled beaches of nearby Taha'a, a secluded island just a short boat ride from the port.

Polynesian Culture

One of the most valuable experiences you can have while traveling the South Pacific is to learn about Polynesia’s rich cultures. The isolated position of the islands has given rise to traditions of music, storytelling, dance, and art. In Fiji, visit a typical village, where you’ll be welcomed with a traditional ceremony and kava juice. For a taste of local culture in Noumea, head to the vibrant municipal market, filled with exotic fruit, fragrant flowers, artisanal crafts, and snack bars. 

Wildlife enthusiasts will find plenty of animal encounters during a South Pacific cruise, both ashore and in the water. Snorkel from the beaches of Tahiti and you could be swimming among rays, dolphins, black-tipped reef sharks, and sea turtles. While in Fiji, take a nature tour through Colo-i-Suva Forest Park. Stroll past rushing streams and tranquil pools, one with a rope swing, and be on the lookout for dazzling birds like robins, fantails, and the colorful musk parrot.

Featured South Pacific Cruise Ports

Pape'ete, tahiti.

There’s plenty to see in and around Papeete—if you can tear yourself away from Tahiti’s glorious beaches and coral reefs, that is. Visit the house where James Norman Hall lived and shop for juicy tropical fruits at the Papeete Market. Take a 4x4 safari into the lush backcountry, a world of jagged peaks, waterfalls, and dense rainforest. See the bay where Captain James Cook made landfall. Learn more about island crafts, including pareo tying and palm weaving.

Lautoka, Fiji

Lautoka is a laid-back city at the heart of Fiji’s sugar cane industry and is home to the largest sugar mill in the South Pacific. In town, chat with locals at the vibrant Lautoka Market and stroll the pretty botanical garden. Admire the Krishna Kaliya Hindu Temple, brilliant with sculptures and murals. And don’t miss those dazzling beaches; a catamaran will whisk you to a remote atoll of swaying palms, white sands, and sparkling seas for the ultimate South Pacific beach day.

Noumea, New Caledonia

Capital of the French territory of New Caledonia, Nouméa has both French and Polynesian influences. Visit St. Joseph’s Cathedral and the City of Nouméa Museum to learn about the history of the island. Head for the bustling market to sample bougna, chicken or fish slow-cooked in banana leaves with yam, sweet potato, and banana. Relax on exquisite coral sand beaches and snorkel over vibrant reefs in the sapphire Pacific.

South Pacific Cruise Itineraries

Journey through the lush South Pacific on adventurous itineraries ranging from 12 to 18 nights. You’ll depart from Sydney, Auckland, or Honolulu and visit multiple islands during your cruise.

The available data on the fluorite potential of the Khabarovsk krai, the Jewish Autonomous Region and Amur oblast have been synthesized. Fluorite deposits and occurrences were ascribed to the rare-earth–fluorite, beryllium–fluorite, fluorite–tin-ore, base-metal–fluorite, and fluorite mineralization types. Fluorite also occurs in the ore and phosphorite deposits of the fluorite-bearing mineralization type. The features of their localization in different tectono-stratigraphic areas of the region are shown. Fluorite-bearing districts were identified and their economic potential was assessed. Most promising fluorite occurrences are located along the periphery of the Siberian platform and in the southern part of the Bureya massif. Inferred fluorite resources were calculated and the prospects for their industrial development were estimated.
