Itinerary Ports

Melbourne Australia
Melbourne has a strong European influence and has several charming characteristics, many of which are found in the amazing food throughout the city. Cruise to Melbourne to enjoy the perfect weather suitable for many different activities. Melbourne is said to have four different seasons in one day, with the morning and nights being slightly chilly and the temperature rising as the day continues. Known as the cultural capital of Australia, Melbourne is home to many art galleries, film festivals, a strong live music scene and incredible food and wine. If you are lucky enough to be in Melbourne in January it is a must that you experience the Australian Open, one of the world’s four famous tennis Gland Slam Championships.
Eden Australia
Eden means "a delightful place," which is what you can expect to see in New South Wales' most southerly town. Eden is known as one of Australia's best whale watching locations. Humpback and southern right whales can be spotted in Eden's Twofold Bay from September to November, as they migrate back to those chilly Antarctic waters. Natural attractions are the aim of the game in delightful Eden as well. Cruise to Eden to visit Ben Boyd National Park and walk along its rugged cliffs to Boyd Tower and Red Point Lookout.
Sydney Australia
One of the most popular and well-known cities in Australia is Sydney, home of the iconic Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Cruise to Sydney and enjoy it’s pairing of historical and contemporary flavors through narrow cobblestone streets filled with local street performers along with new trendy restaurants and bars. The golden sand beaches in Sydney are where you will find the beautifully bronzed locals during the day before they head out for a night out on the town. Bordered by the Pacific Ocean, Hawkesbury River and Royal National Park, this coastal basin has around 70 harbour and ocean beaches, including famous Bondi Beach. The waterfront in Sydney seems to be everywhere, from the beaches to harbourside parks and oceanfront dining and shopping.
