13 nights · 29. September - 12. October 2026 · Lautoka → Papeete
This thirteen-night expedition aboard Silver Cloud links Fiji with French Polynesia and traverses island groups rarely visited by cruise ships. From Lautoka on Viti Levu, the world of the Lau Islands opens with Somosomo, the Ringgold Isles, Cobia and Fulanga, whose limestone lagoons rank among Fiji's most beautiful. In Tonga, Neiafu in the Vava'u group and the quiet stops at Eueiki and Uoleva invite snorkelling and an encounter with the Polynesian kingdom. Via Rarotonga and Aitutaki in the Cook Islands, the route continues to Bora Bora and through the Tuamotus to Papeete.

Lautoka, the "Sugar City" on Fiji's main island of Viti Levu, is the gateway to the Mamanuca and Yasawa island groups. The nearby Sabeto mud pools with hot springs and the Garden of the Sleeping Giant (orchid collection) are classic Fiji highlights.
This village lies on the island of Taveuni in Fiji on the Somosomo Strait, one of the most famous dive sites in the South Pacific. The Rainbow Reef is renowned worldwide for its soft corals.
In north-eastern Fiji east of Vanua Levu island in the South Pacific, this remote island group comprises around a dozen small atolls and coral reefs. Sparsely inhabited and barely developed for tourism, it serves as a secluded port of call for yacht charters and expedition cruises.
Hidden deep in Fiji's Lau group lies the remote atoll of Fulanga in the South Pacific, well off the tourist routes. Its sheltered lagoon with limestone mushroom rocks is known among sailors as one of Oceania's finest anchorages, and the village community keeps the traditional tanoa wood-carving craft alive.
Neiafu is the main town of the Vava'u island group in the Kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific north of Tongatapu. The deeply indented natural harbour at Port of Refuge ranks as one of the best sailing grounds in the whole South Pacific, where humpback whales arriving from Antarctica come to calve and nurse their young in the warm water from July to October.
Uoleva is a small, almost uninhabited island in the Haʻapai group of the Polynesian Kingdom of Tonga. White coral beaches, a clear reef and seasonal humpback whales make it an unspoiled South Sea destination.
As the largest of the Cook Islands in the South Pacific, this volcanic island rises from turquoise waters with the rugged Te Manga (652 m) at its centre. An unbroken coral reef encircles it, creating a calm lagoon, while dense rainforest blankets the mountainous interior with waterfalls and walking trails.
Aitutaki is part of the Cook Islands in the South Pacific and is famed for its turquoise lagoon dotted with small motus. It is considered one of the most beautiful lagoons in the world.
An extinct volcanic cone in the middle of a turquoise lagoon, ringed by a white coral reef - Bora-Bora is globally regarded as the epitome of paradise. The unique underwater world and the stillness of the sheltered lagoon make every visit unforgettable.
Rangiroa is one of the largest atolls in the world and belongs to the Tuamotu Archipelago in French Polynesia. Its crystal-clear lagoon and the famous Tiputa and Avatoru passes are among the finest dive sites in the South Pacific.
The capital of Tahiti on the north-west coast of the main island of French Polynesia is the gateway to the South Seas. It combines a colourful market scene at the Marché de Pape'ete with pearl jewellery boutiques, creole cafés and the harbourside roulottes food stalls. Papeete is the start and end point of almost every Polynesia cruise.
