The Pacific and Oceania offer some of the world’s most stunning cruising areas and varied scenery. From Australia’s cosmopolitan cities and Great Barrier Reef, to New Zealand’s mountains and vineyards, Oceania also encompasses Micronesia and Polynesia and abounds in antipodean adventures.

Australia is a continent like no other. Its varied coastline and the Great Barrier Reef are ideal destinations for adventurous charterers. The bright lights of the cities and the tropical islands provide a vibrant backdrop for a cruise in the Southern Hemisphere. Dotted along the east coast of Australia are some of the country’s best known cities, such as Sydney, Brisbane and Cairns. The latter is an excellent place to embark on a charter to the Great Barrier Reef, where days can be spent tracing the coastline, swimming and snorkelling in the brilliant coral waters amongst the kaleidoscopic marine life.
