INTERNATIONAL DATELINE CROSSING CRUISE INTO THE FUTURE. Experience a time- honoured travel milestone, celebrated by sailors as a rite of passage, marked by ceremony. The International Date Line is an imaginary line that passes from the North Pole to the South Pole and is used to designate the start of each day. Sailing west across this line in the Pacific Ocean means that you will effectively “cruise into the future,” as you skip a day. Enjoy a toast on board to mark this momentous occasion. AMAZING AUCKLAND. Boats dot the harbours of Auckland, the “City of Sails," proud home to America’s Cup racing yachts. This maritime city is set on a narrow portion of New Zealand’s North Island and surrounded by large harbours. Waitemata Harbour is the city’s best-known body of water; the also sizeable Manukau Harbour lies on Auckland's opposite side. Geographically, each is nearly encircled by protective land, with only a narrow entrance from the sea KO MODO DRAGON, INDONESIA. A DAZZLING MARINE WONDERLAND. The world’s largest coral reef system, Australia’s Great Barrier Reef stretches some 133,000 square miles along the continent's northern coast. This magnificent natural structure, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, comprises about 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands. During your call in Cairns, you may choose to venture out and witness its displays of vividly hued coral and abundant marine life up close. KOMODO’S FAMED DENIZEN. Legend surrounds Komodo’s most famous resident. During your visit, you will be on the lookout with a guide for the island's namesake “dragon,” Varanus komodoensis. The largest lizard in the world, the Komodo dragon can grow up to ten feet long and weigh as much as 150 pounds. The creature is protected within Komodo National Park, often seen as a real-life Jurassic Park for its unspoiled beauty and primitive inhabitants.
