The South Pacific caters to all travel styles, from jet-setting sophisticates, to honeymooning newlyweds, to families on fun-filled vacations, to friends on adrenaline-jazzed outdoor adventures.

Australia’s most iconic attractions range from the instantly recognizable Sydney Opera House – the height of urban sophistication – to the sacred Uluru, mighty symbol of the Outback. Australia’s smaller neighbor Down Under, New Zealand is big on natural beauty, recreation, and culture. The last significant landmass discovered by humans, it’s also one of travel’s best-kept secrets.

And then there’s – literally – paradise on Earth. Exotic French Polynesia and Tahiti’s dramatic mountain ridges, European flair, and luxurious over-water bungalows lure visitors eager to experience serenity and sophistication in equal measure. Romantic five-star resorts open directly onto gleaming beaches and clear blue waters.

Fiji is a stunning archipelago with over 300 islands, all surrounded by dreamy beaches, vibrant coral reefs, shimmering sapphire waters, and views to an infinite horizon, a sensory journey where coconut-scented trails lead into the gentle lapping of the waves and awaken you to otherworldly sights and sounds.

The South Pacific has a smattering of islands that, while small in size, are big on relaxation. Samoa, Cook Islands, New Caledonia, Tonga, Vanuatu, and Niue add up to a hearty serving of flawless beaches, secluded island hideaways, and adrenaline-fueled action against dramatic natural backdrops.
