Step ashore in the footsteps of Captain Cook and discover an unspoilt landscape fringed by sapphire seas. Stroll amongst the soaring pine trees, or take a guided tour of this former convict settlement.

If Fiji is known as the Friendly Islands and Suva is its capital city, the welcome is at its warmest and treasure trove of marine and cultural experiences at its richest on a Suva cruise with Carnival Cruise Line. So what does this capital city have to offer? A little bit of everything. There’s a little bit of the past with colonial buildings still lining the streets, and a little bit of the present with a few high rises thrown into the mix. You’ll find the usual island suspects like waving palm trees and beautiful gardens, and a few not so usual suspects like sari shops and bric-a-brac traders.

Virtually untouched for thousands of years and with a population of only 150, Dravuni Island is both a step back in time and paradise on earth. This tiny Fijian island, measuring just 2kms long and 0.5km wide, provides unspoilt splendour and a heart-warming local embrace on a Dravuni Island cruise with Carnival.

Port Vila or, simply, Vila to those in the know is the bustling capital and vibrant hub of Vanuatu in the South Pacific.

It may be oceans away, but the welcome will make you feel right at home. From the moment you arrive you’re greeted with a big ol’ smile.
