Between them Pacific Sun, Pacific Dawn and Pacific Star have 59 cruises visiting Vanuatu in 2008 and 60 cruises visiting in 2009, with departures from Sydney, Brisbane and Auckland.

Prices start at just over $1000 per person for 7 nights - when you weigh up that meals and entertainment are included, as well as exotic tropical destinations and all the on-board fun, it really is great value for money.

While we can also book any cruise on these P&O liners that doesn't include Vanuatu as a port-of-call (a lot of shorter cruises focus on Noumea and Isle of Pines etc), we have only featured the ones below that include Port Vila because:

• It can be the most rewarding day of the cruise
• That's the one we really know (we can also suggest some excellent things to do in Noumea, too!) and
• It is the only port where couples can get married.

Ships dock at 8:00am and depart at 4:00pm, 5:00pm or 6:00pm.

Simply select a cruise departure date below that interests you and email us for more information on the itinerary and prices.
