Explore the Islands of the South Pacific
Last month we unveiled new guided group tour options in Australia and New Zealand. But you can also explore the region by sea! When you embark on a South Pacific cruise, you'll relax on board a fabulous ship while you travel to exotic islands amid turquoise waters.
The South Pacific is made up of three regions with approximately 20 island nations, including Fiji, Tonga, New Caledonia and Vanuatu. From diving and snorkeling to learning about the cultures of native tribes, there are a variety of ways for you to explore the area. Get ideas and tips about traveling to the South Pacific here.
As a Member, you can choose from cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Carnival and more, with cruises departing from Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne. There are Club Connections locations in all three of these cities, allowing you to easily extend your holiday before or after your cruise. Here are just a few examples of the South Pacific cruises available to you:
