Tasman Sea, Fjords & Māori Shores
10-night one-way sailing from Melbourne to Auckland
A day in the Bay of Plenty
On this limited-sailing to Auckland, you’ll travel through some of the most pristine passages on the planet. Beginning on the banks of Melbourne, journey into Tasmania, stopping in Burnie and Hobart, and then onto New Zealand’s North Island — by way of Fjordland’s top Sounds — with all-day and late-night visits to the island’s most exceptional coastal cities.

Keeping it local
We’ve teamed up with locals in each of our ports to reveal sides of places you’ve yet to explore — from the people who know the destinations best.
The places you'll go

Melbourne
With funky cafes, Aussie Football, and world-class wineries, this is a city to indulge all your favorite interests.

Burnie
Tasmania’s most exciting western destination features a thriving art, food, and wildlife scene unlike any other in the world.

Hobart
With its unique culture and wildlife, Tasmania is a fascinating destination to visitors from afar, or just across the sea.

Dunedin
With “gingerbread” architecture, penguins, and a City of Literature status — Dunedin offers something to satisfy every mood.

Christchurch
This bustling city is just as exhilarating as its thrill-seeking opportunities, natural retreats, and local wildlife.

Tauranga
Tauranga offers plenty of adrenaline-filled thrills, or those looking to relax seaside — or natural hot saltwater pool-side.

Auckland
Beaches, mountains, and a vibrant city center — Auckland is the perfect place to begin and end a journey of a lifetime.
An ocean of opportunities calling your name.
There’s nothing more liberating than having the freedom of charting your own course. No pre-assigned seating, no fixed schedules, no limited options, no nonsense — just a shipload of opportunities to rejuvenate your body and transform your soul.
