Polynesian Trade Wind – Bora Bora & Hilo

About this cruise

A trip this long changes your rhythm entirely, and that's very much the point. 13 nights from Papeete on October 25, 2027, visiting Moorea Island, Bora Bora Island and Raiatea Island, with additional stops along the Hawaii. The trip wraps in Honolulu, so you won't retrace your steps. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Lei greetings, luau evenings, and ocean that somehow never stops being blue. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Norwegian Spirit has 13 dining spots on board, most of them included. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. An October sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 13-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
