Island Hopper’s Dream – Port Vila & Mystery Island
About this cruise
No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 9-night sailing from Sydney on November 17, 2027 visits Lelepa Island Vanuatu, Port Vila and Mystery Island. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 3 port calls start. Sydney Opera House one day, Milford Sound's fjords another. The Antipodes reward the long flight. People come back from this cruise talking about Port Vila: Vanuatu's tropical capital of volcano thrills. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 15 restaurants on Anthem of the Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 9 nights. Sydney itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. 3 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
