Read more about the amazing 2028 Circle Pacific Cruise below.

Sailing over 26,000 nautical miles departing from Brisbane, Sydney or Auckland, this once-in-a-lifetime 2028 cruise circles the Pacific Ocean, linking some of the world’s most extraordinary islands, cities and coastlines.

Your adventure begins in the South Pacific at Norfolk Island, a hidden paradise of pine forests and convict history, before discovering the natural beauty and warm spirit of New Zealand. Wander the harbours of Auckland, explore Tauranga’s coastal trails and soak up the serenity of the Bay of Islands. Then it’s on to Fiji, where the vibrant capital Suva and tiny Dravuni Island reveal the heart of the Pacific, followed by the welcoming charm of Apia in Samoa. Crossing the International Dateline, you’ll literally gain a day as your voyage continues into the tropical beauty of Tahiti, Moorea and Raiatea - islands that capture the very essence of paradise.

From there, journey across the Equator to Hawaii, where each island tells its own story. Feel the rhythm of Honolulu, the lush beauty of Kauai and the volcanic landscapes of Maui. Sail onward to the bright lights of Los Angeles, the sunshine of San Diego and the iconic views of San Francisco - each bursting with culture, food and colour.

Heading north, your voyage explores the Pacific Northwest and the wild beauty of Alaska. Visit Victoria and Vancouver before continuing to Wrangell, Sitka, Juneau and Skagway. Glide past towering ice walls on breathtaking scenic cruising through Hubbard Glacier and College Fjord, before arriving in Whittier (Anchorage).

Crossing the Pacific once more, you’ll reach Japan, where ancient traditions meet modern life. Explore Tokyo, see Mt Fuji from Shimizu, and wander through Osaka, Kochi, Kagoshima and Ishigaki. Continue to Taipei (Keelung) and enjoy an overnight stay in Hong Kong, a city alive with energy and wonder.

Southeast Asia then unfolds before you. Cruise through the limestone peaks of Halong Bay, stroll the golden beaches of Nha Trang and discover the buzz of Ho Chi Minh City. In Kuala Lumpur, blend modern energy with rich history before an overnight stay in vibrant Singapore - a perfect mix of culture, cuisine and architecture.

As your circle nears completion, uncover the magic of Bali, Lombok and Komodo Island, where nature and culture meet in perfect harmony. Finally, sail home via Darwin, colourful Alotau and the pristine Conflict Islands, before returning to Brisbane and completing your incredible Pacific circle.

This is more than a cruise - it’s an epic story written across the world’s largest ocean. The 2028 Circle Pacific Voyage blends adventure, discovery and comfort in one seamless journey, created for travellers who dream of seeing it all on a single, unforgettable voyage. Read less
