Welcome to P&O Cruises
Imagine a holiday where you can relax and enjoy life at a different pace. Where there is something for everyone and you never run out of things to do. Where you find yourself amongst friends and at every turn you’re welcomed by a smiling face. Where the kids are in the best of hands and the turquoise waters and palm-fringed beaches of the South Pacific and tropical Queensland greet you each day.
In 1932, P&O Cruises introduced Australians to the pleasures of a cruise holiday. Since then we’ve welcomed more than 2 million passengers on board. Throughout the years we’ve prided ourselves on creating happy, memorable times aboard so you can enjoy the best cruise vacation possible.
Joining the fleet in November 2007 was Australia’s first superliner, Pacific Dawn. Now you can enjoy more amenities and an ever-expanding selection of choices. As we’ve grown, we’ve made sure the little things that make a difference to your holiday remain the same. From the cabin steward who makes up your cabin each day, to the waiter who serves you, you’ll experience the same high level of friendly service that sets us apart. So no matter what you are doing on board, we’ll be there to take the best care of you, 24 hours a day. It’s our pleasure.

Discover Hidden Paradises
Our enticing cruises visit the most diverse range of destinations. Explore fascinating cultures and natural wonders as you cruise the turquoise waters across the Pacific, along Australia’s spectacular coastline and to New Zealand’s scenic delights.
From your cruise ship is the most relaxing way to explore. Your holiday commences the moment you step on board our local cruise ships Pacific Dawn or Pacific Sun. Unpack, settle into your cabin and get ready for the most magical experience. As your floating resort sets out from Sydney, Brisbane or Auckland, your cares slip away as you relax into life on the ocean.
Each day you will wake to spectacular views and discover a new piece of paradise. Every amazing destination offers something different – you can gaze at majestic natural wonders, stroll the shores of sapphire blue lagoons, go snorkeling or beachcombing and leave your footprint on white sand beaches.
You can cruise along Queensland’s stunning coastline and even venture to Darwin and discover the Top End. Australia’s southern cities shine and our itineraries include such diverse destinations as cosmopolitan Melbourne, historic Tasmania and the scenic splendours of New Zealand.
It’s the perfect holiday – excellent service, delicious dining and wonderful entertainment. That’s life on board P&O Cruises. Welcome aboard!
