PACIFIC CRUISES

Covering an area of over 11 million square miles and depicted as a swathe of dots across the map, the Pacific Islands are as diverse as the area is vast. Split into different groups of Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia, each with its own cultures, traditions and stunning landscapes, from the ever-popular to the incredibly remote, each comes with a variety of things to explore. The most famous and largest collection of isles are Polynesia and French Polynesia with idyllic lands like Tahiti, Samoa and Bora Bora, as well as the mysterious Easter Island. Intriguingly, even the Hawaiian Islands are sometimes included in this group.
