As the ship sails away under a golden sunset, your unforgettable voyage begins.
Wake to the breathtaking sight of Bora Bora, the “Pearl of the Pacific.” Tender ashore to discover a paradise of turquoise lagoons and coral reefs.

In the evening, return to the ship for dinner under the stars, accompanied by the soft hum of the Pacific.
Few places on Earth rival Bora Bora’s beauty—emerald peaks wrapped in rainforest, encircled by a luminous blue-green lagoon that seems painted by the sun itself.
Two tranquil days unfold as you sail through the South Pacific. Unwind at The Sanctum Spa, join an engaging lecture, or relax poolside with a cool drink and endless ocean views.

Sitting pretty in the middle of the South Pacific, Pago Pago is an eco-tourism haven and a tropical paradise untouched by time—welcoming, wild, and unforgettable.
Sail across the boundless Pacific Ocean and experience the extraordinary crossing of the International Date Line—a moment where time itself bends. Celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime milestone with themed events, cultural activities, and the joy of simply being at sea.
As you lounge on deck, surrounded by vast blue horizons, it’s easy to lose track of time and space. This is the magic of the Pacific: where every wave carries a whisper of discovery.
Dock in Apia, Samoa’s lively capital, where old-world charm meets natural splendor. Explore cascading waterfalls, stroll through tropical gardens, and discover local markets alive with color and energy. Visit the Robert Louis Stevenson Museum, set within the author’s former home, or swim in one of Samoa’s idyllic freshwater pools.
Rich traditions, warm smiles, and stunning scenery make Apia feel like paradise—where life moves to the rhythm of the waves and every encounter feels like an invitation to stay longer.
Take a deep breath and let the world slow down as you enjoy another peaceful day at sea. Whether you spend it by the pool, in the spa, or simply watching the horizon, every moment invites reflection and renewal. As evening falls, savor another exceptional meal followed by music, laughter, and conversation beneath the stars.
