Tanna’s erupting Mount Yasur is regarded as the world’s most accessible active volcano. Known for its continuous
activity since Captain James Cook observed ash eruptions in 1774, it’s considered a sacred area by members of the
John Frum cargo cult, who believe their deity resides inside.

A coral atoll atop a collapsed volcano, Lifou is the largest and highest of the Loyalty Islands. In the north, the
coastline ends abruptly in cliffs, while the south is a long expanse of beaches. Further inland, the rich Kanak culture
is proudly upheld by the local community.
Day 5 | Tue, 25 Nov Isle of Pines (B,L,D)
The “Jewel of the Pacific” is named after the tall trees that line the white-sand shores. It’s the southernmost of the
Caledonian islands and the largest in the marine area of the Great Southern Lagoon, a UNESCO World Heritage
site. Isle of Pines is also a former penal colony, where political prisoners from the Paris Commune and Kabylians
from Algeria were deported at the end of the 19th century.

Today, you can live out your Robinson Crusoe fantasies on a deserted speck in the middle of the South Pacific.
Welcome to the uninhabited Kouare Islet, a little piece of perfection. Set in the middle of one of New Caledonia’s
World Heritage-listed lagoons, pristine coral reefs are teeming with colourful fish, and black noddies and terns wheel
in the skies above.
Day 7 | Thu, 27 Nov At sea (B,L,D)

Looping around the Coromandel Peninsula, Scenic Eclipse II will arrive in Tauranga (pronounced 'toe-run-gah') this

24 hours a day with freighters, ferries and cruise ships. The city is one of the fastest growing in New Zealand, yet
retains its peaceful, laid-back charm. The revamped waterfront is packed with excellent cafes, restaurants and bars.
While Tauranga has its charms, it’s also the closest port for some of New Zealand’s most iconic sights. Rotorua is a
natural geothermal wonderland with hot springs, bubbling mud pools and clouds of steam erupting from the ground
thanks to subterranean volcanic activity. Set on a peninsula to the north-east of Tauranga, Mount Manganui is
regularly voted the most beautiful beach in New Zealand. The extinct volcano Mauao, which is sacred to the Maori
people, towers over the white sand beach and its world-renowned surf break.
