P&O Cruises Australia is giving its loyal guests yet another exciting opportunity to experience some of Australia's best coastal destinations with an amazing 28-night ‘Australian Explorer’ circumnavigation around mainland Australia.
It is a first-of-its-kind sailing for P&O Cruises and a headline feature of the new 2023/24 program, building on a nearly 90-year history of cruising in Australia and defining P&O’s proud reputation as the nation’s homegrown cruise line.
P&O Cruises’ Pacific Explorer will host the inaugural voyage departing either from Brisbane or Sydney in June 2024.
Guests will experience the attractions of 11 iconic Australian ports including state capitals and regional centres with Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Albany, Fremantle, Exmouth, Broome, Kuri Bay, Darwin, Cairns and Airlie Beach on the spectacular itinerary, along with a call at Ambon in Indonesia. The cruise also includes scenic cruising of Yampi Sound and Raft Point in the Kimberley region.
