Escape to the paradisical shores of the South Pacific. With bright turquoise lagoons, platinum sands, volcanic peaks, and verdant jungle interiors – these tropical islands are truly out-of-this-world.

Begin your journey with a two-night, pre-cruise stay in faraway Fiji at the ultra-luxurious InterContinental Fiji Golf Resort & Spa. You’ll then be whisked away to the port, where you’ll board the elegant Le Paul Gaugin for your 13-night voyage around Fiji’s finest islands, stepping ashore on Beqa, Vita Levu, and Vanua Levu.

Next, venture to the tropical havens of the Vava’u Islands in Tonga, before crossing the International Date Line for a surreal ‘time travel’ experience at sea.

Sail to the picturesque Cook Islands – home to the world’s most beautiful lagoon – where you can snorkel over colourful coral gardens and spot shoals of mesmerising marine fish.

Feel the sand between your toes in the honeymoon hotspot of Bora Bora, before hopping around the Society Islands of Ta’ha, Moorea, and finally, Tahiti.

Conclude your voyage with a relaxing two-night, post-cruise stay at InterContinental Tahiti Resort & Spa. Feast on fresh seafood at Le Lotus restaurant and sip on signature cocktails at the resort’s lively Tiki Bar, as you watch the sun set over the South Pacific Ocean for the final time.
