11 Aug '28Cruise overview
Remote beaches and rich Polynesian culture abound throughout this iconic South Pacific voyage to Fiji, Tonga, the Cook Islands, and French Polynesia, where you’ll experience the pristine beauty of turquoise lagoons, white-sand beaches, and vibrant coral reefs. On Rarotonga, join a guided nature trek, where you’ll learn about the island’s culture and history from a local. Explore the subterranean splendors of ‘Ana Hulu in Tonga, a coral limestone cavern concealing centuries-old freshwater lakes, or wander scenic rainforest paths in Taveuni’s Bouma National Heritage Park. Indulge in sweet cocoa farm treats during a delicious tree-to-bar tour on Vana Levu, or dine on Fijian fish dishes and tropical fruit cocktails. Rekindle romantic magic at beachside resort accommodations during an overnight stay on Bora Bora, and allow flowers to perfume the air as you sail into a fiery sunset.
Itinerary
Lautoka
North of Nadi through sugarcane plantations and past the Sabeto Mountains is Lautoka, nicknamed the Sugar City for the local agriculture and its big processing mill. With a population of around 50,000, it’s the only city besides Suva and, like the capital, has a pleasant waterfront. It’s the sailing point for Blue Lagoon and Beachcomber Cruises but is otherwise unremarkable for tourists, itself having few hotels and fewer good restaurants. Locals recommend the city as a less-expensive place to shop for clothing, but note that it can take as long as 45 minutes to drive here. Legend has it that Lautoka acquired its name when two chiefs engaged in combat and one hit the other with a spear. He proclaimed “lau toka” (spear hit) and thus the future town was named.
