What is your favorite South Pacific Port

South Pacific , according to youtube videos , is beautiful.

shaycruiser would love to hear about any excursions you did in tahita, bora bora and moorea. really don't know much abut the area and would love to find out more!

Bora Bora, Moorea and Cook Islands. We did a cruise (10 day Tahitian Princess 2003) sailed out of Tahiti loved that cruise! Best cruise ever! The Islands were just magical. Fantastic diving/snorkeling! We had over 60 people from CC that we had all met on Roll Call and did several excursions with different ones and met up each night to catch up on everyone's activities! From that we cruised a couple of times in Hawaii 2nd best cruise was NCL's Wind that was a 11 day cruise from Hawaii that also went to Fanning Island. This was a fantastic cruise we fell in love with Hawaii and have since been back several times and stayed on Big Island and Maui.

Maybe, one of these days I can reply with a port. Til then....

any idea of fun things to do while there?

Any port your on a cruise ship what could be better

Moorea and Rangaroa then Bora Bora. We have not made it to New Zealand, Australia or Fiji yet. Bucket list items!

When I was in Moorea, we stayed in a thatched bungalow over the lagoon. It was expensive but a once in a lifetime experience. I loved swimming in the lagoon and watch the fish swimming in the crystal clear water under a glass cutout in the floor the bungalow.

South Pacific is south of the equator. North Pacific is north of the equator. I know it sounds strange for somebody like us, living at 61 degrees North L. but Hawaii is in the North Pacific and so is the Gulf of Alaska.

Most of Hawaii is in the tropics, of all the major Hawaiian islands, Kuai, is furthest north but it too is still in the tropics. None of Florida is in the tropics.

It is almost 1400 miles from Hawaii to the equator, from the equator to Tahiti it is another approx 1200 miles of southern sailing. From Anchorage to Seattle it is 1450 nautical miles.

Speaking of Tahiti. I know my first response on this thread was Auckland N. Z. and for things to do that would be my number one choice, south of the equator. But we were in Tahiti for a full day one time and I really enjoyed it. You can embark on a cruise at Tahiti (Papeete), so I thought perhaps someday we could do that as I found a real nice hotel to stay in close to the isthmus in the eastern portion of the high land Papeete is on. See, the French aren’t all that bad.

I love coming into Auckland on a sunny day past the islands
