This 7-night Tahiti & South Pacific Islands cruise aboard the Carnival Encounter by Carnival Cruise Line departs Brisbane on October 3, 2026, calling at Noumea, Lifou, Port Vila, and returns October 10, 2026. Cabin prices start from $914 per person.
Brisbane cruise port is Queensland's main cruise hub and the primary departure point for South Pacific and New Zealand itineraries out of Australia's east coast. The Brisbane International Cruise Terminal (BICT) opened in 2020 at Luggage Point near the mouth of the Brisbane River, replacing the older Portside Wharf facility which had depth limits that barred larger ships.
