There are two dedicated cruise passenger terminals - the White Bay Cruise Terminal at Rozelle and the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay in the city centre.

Love Sabatini’s? (Or really good Italian dinners?) You’ll be happy to hear this popular specialty restaurant has returned to its roots. Think traditional Italian comfort cuisine. Our new menu embraces the old: tried-and-true family recipes our chefs brought with them from Italy, plus exquisite Italian wines and cocktails. You can even enjoy some shareable plates exclusively at Sabatini’s Trattoria.

Dravuni is a tropical island paradise with soft white sands, reclining palm trees and impossibly clear blue waters. A perfect example of timelessness, Dravuni has remained virtually unchanged for thousands of years.

Walk along a palm-lined path that leads you up a small inland peak for stunning island views. Swim and snorkel in the crystal waters, walk around the village and meet some of the friendly Fijians or just relax on the pristine beach. This unspoilt island is the perfect place to unwind.

Ships will anchor offshore and tenders will be provided to the shore.

Take a dip in our sparkling freshwater pools and leave your everyday world behind. Unwind on a padded lounger and soak up the sun, catch up on reading, listen to music or dream of your next adventure on board or ashore. And what better way to relax and revitalize after a day exploring the world than a long soak in one of our whirling hot tubs. And don’t forget, there is always a server nearby to bring you a refreshing cocktail or favourite beverage.

Better than we had hoped 0 , New Zealand, Dec 2024
Wow, first time on a cruise and I have to say, it was fantastic. Princess made everything really easy, walking up anywhere for a drink or food, they were able to identify you. All of the staff were fantastic and friendly. The food, accommodation, drinks and entertainment on board really did exceed my expectations. Thanks for a great trip team!

Booking online with Georgie has aways been a delight. She is very attentive to our wants and needs. Responding with alternatives and giving us options. Our trip went without any issues and we enjoyed exploring different cities throughout our journey. Thank you for support and will definitely book through you again.

We both loved the cruise. Highlights included, meeting nice people, the food and more food. My partner couldn't get away from his job 😂 logs at every port. The entertainment was great and movie under the stars 🤩 Room was cleaned twice a day. Staff super helpful.
