South Pacific Shore Excursions
When cruising to Vanuatu, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Tahiti or New Caledonia, excursions are a major part of the cruise experience. The South Pacific is known for its gorgeous beaches and its warm climate, but there are plenty of other attractions and enjoyable ways to spend your day in the harbour.
For many cruise lines, South Pacific ports like Noumea and Port Denarau are frequent stops. Some, like Papua New Guinea’s remote Padang, would likely be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Even if you are an independent traveller, unless you book the cruise line’s shore trips, it may not be possible to completely enjoy any of these destinations. Others are great for just sitting on the seafront.
