Tropical Paradise – Bora Bora & Rarotonga

About this cruise

You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 13 nights from Papeete on July 11, 2027, visiting Moorea Island, Raiatea Island and Bora Bora Island, with additional stops along the Pacific Islands. You get off in Lautoka, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 8 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. 5 countries (French Polynesia, Cook Islands, United States, Samoa and Fiji) across the Pacific Islands, each with its own character. Don't rush through Rarotonga Island, which is known as The Cook Islands' mountainous tropical heart. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on Norwegian Spirit. 6 restaurants come with the fare, plus 7 more when you feel like treating yourself. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. All told, 8 ports across 13 nights covers a lot.
