Island Hopping Cruises

Trying to fit many destinations into one holiday can be exhausting. If you’re thinking of an island hopping destination for your next holiday, why not save time and money by booking a cruise? Rather than spending your spare time researching how to get from island to island (flight or ferry?) and hanging out at airport terminals or ferry jetties, you can enjoy your time snorkelling crystal clear waters, lounging on a beach chair or exploring all the sights. Make the most of your next holiday by opting for an island hopping adventure on a cruise ship.

Hawaiian Islands

Hawaii

Aloha, and welcome to the Hawaiian Islands – some of the most stunning islands on earth. The best way to see them? A cruise of course.

Hop from island to island taking in the varying landscapes, bathing on sun-kissed beaches or stargazing atop the largest sea mountain in the world. Enjoy panoramic views of Honolulu from the top of Diamond Head or catch a wave at Waikiki Beach.

Explore lush rainforests and rocky canyons on the “Garden Island” of Kauai. Drive the infamous Road to Hana offering breathtaking views that alternate between mountain streams and soaring sea cliffs. Or, witness 12 separate climate zones on The Big Island with dramatically different temperatures and scenic beauty, ranging from the balmy coastal jungles in Puna to the snowcapped peaks dotting the slopes of Mauna Kea.

The mythical islands of Tahiti are ideally located in French Polynesia in the Pacific Ocean. These 118 idyllic islands are just about as close to paradise as you’ll get.

With pastel-painted houses, waterfalls that tumble-down majestic cliffs, an inviting bright blue lagoon and simple villages filled with laughter, Moorea’s beauty is unforgettable. Why stay put in an overwater bungalow when you can float from island to island on a relaxing cruise?
