Coral Expeditions: Winter in Wallis and Fotuna

In celebration of the Christmas festivities and in anticipation of the arrival of the New Year, Coral Expeditions‘ clients will have the unique opportunity to set foot on these stunning volcanic islands with their paradisiacal landscapes and extraordinary cultural mixes. In fact, this archipelago, now a territory of the French Overseas Protectorate was an important stopping point for English and Dutch explorers, French missionaries and a hub for the even more ancient Fijian and Samoan merchant trade.

In fact, to maximise the experience of the expedition, the captain and expedition leader will survey conditions along the way and land on rarely visited islands such as the historic Luganville and the lush Pentecost Island in Vanuatu.

When you are not on board immersed in the intimate and exclusive atmosphere of this ship of only 60 cabins, you will visit the famous Polynesian thatched houses, enjoy the kava drink and many other activities to immerse yourself in the local culture. An important stop on the expedition is certainly Niue, one of the largest coral atolls in the world.

The expedition will end in Auckland, New Zealand after crossing the International Date Line, the imaginary line where the new day is ‘born’.
