SEATTLE, May 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- Seabourn, the ultra-luxury resort at sea, is
inviting travelers to explore the "peaceful sea" and myriad islands
within it on the brand new Grand Pacific Voyage 2022: A World of
Islands. Open for sale now, the 65-day adventure is set to
depart Vancouver, British
Columbia, aboard Seabourn Odyssey on
September 30, 2022, and arrive at
Sydney, Australia, on December 5, 2022, offering a world of experiences
for guests in between with 41 ports, 30 islands, 12 countries,
and five overnight stays on the itinerary. Guests will also
have the option to embark the voyage in Seattle on October 1,
2022.
The 65-day itinerary of the Grand Pacific Voyage includes
stops at notable destinations Seabourn has not visited in over five
years, including: Lahaina,
Maui, Hawaii; Avatoru, Rangiroa,
French Polynesia; Mataiva,
French Polynesia; Maupiti Island,
French Polynesia; Maroe Bay, Huahine-Iti, French Polynesia; Cook's Bay, Moorea,
French Polynesia; Alofi,
Niue; Dravuni Island, Fiji; and Ghizo Island, Solomon Islands.
"The Pacific Ocean is a phenomenon all its own – so vast, so
beautiful, with such a wide range of destinations and cultures for
guests to discover, so demand for this 2022 Grand Pacific Voyage
has been very strong," said Josh
Leibowitz, president of Seabourn. "French Polynesia and Tahiti belong on
everyone's must-visit list, and there is no more appealing way to
check them off than on board Seabourn Odyssey."
Once-in-a-lifetime travel experiences available on Seabourn's
2022 Grand Pacific Voyage are endless, with 25 optional, guided
Ventures by Seabourn excursions where guests are invited to
explore settings of natural beauty via hike, kayak, and Zodiac
across the South Pacific. Destinations with the excursions include
Maupiti Island, French
Polynesia; Ureparapara, Vanuatu; Ghizo Island, Solomon Islands; and Savusavu, Vanau Levu,
Fiji, to name a few. There
will also be two days of Ventures by Seabourn offerings in Conflict
Islands (Panawal Group), Papua New
Guinea, and Cairns, Queensland,
Australia.
Among the featured overnight destinations for guests of the
Grand Pacific Voyage to anticipate:
- Honolulu, Hawaii –
Experience a vibrant mix of natural, cultural and historic wonders
on the island of Oahu, and a blend
of cultures in this gleaming city. The famed resort destination of
Waikiki Beach will be waiting, as will the volcanic landmark
Diamond Head and historic
Pearl Harbor, the largest natural
harbor in Hawaii, and the only
U.S. naval base designated as a National Historical Landmark.
- Conflict Island (Panawal Group), Papua New Guinea – Named by its discoverer
for the British ship HMS Conflict, this archipelago of 21 coral
atolls off the coast of New Guinea
is as peaceful and idyllic as paradise can get. And paradise it is,
privately owned by a passionate conservationist, with activities
including kayaking, snorkeling and paddle-boarding tailored for
full enjoyment of beautiful beaches, bio-diverse reefs, crystal
clear and comfortably warm waters, and relaxation on sugary
sands.
- Papeete, French
Polynesia – The capital of Tahiti was once a
gathering place for islanders to fill their calabashes with fresh
water. Today, it's a gateway city lively with romantic resorts,
fine-dining restaurants, pearl shops, vibrant markets, and
boutiques. The mountainous interior of Tahiti beyond has deep
valleys and scenic waterfalls, while the rugged coastal lands are
dotted with fields of tropical flowers and glorious white- and
black-sand beaches.
Sailing the Pacific Ocean is an unparalleled experience. It is
the Earth's largest feature – wet or dry – with a total area larger
than all landmasses combined. Occupying a full third of the globe
and stretching halfway around the world at its widest point, the
Pacific plunges to a maximum depth of nearly 36,000 feet. The
ocean's ever-moving surface is further embellished with most of the
world's islands – some 25,000 in total – leaving no shortage of
destinations for Seabourn guests to discover.
In addition, there will be a selection of optional Overland
and Seabourn Journeys, offering opportunities to explore
treasured sites on land that cannot be accessed on single-day
excursions from the ship.
Guests will receive an additional 6 percent savings off the
cruise-only fare if they book the entire 65-day Grand Pacific
Voyage and pay in full by May 31,
2021. Certain restrictions apply. For guests who cannot
