In March and April and again in September and October 2024 the luxury expedition ship, which entered service in August, will sail round the South Pacific and the coast of Chile.

Highlights include visits to Easter Island, the Pitcairn group, French Polynesia, the Yasawa Islands of Fiji and Vanuatu.

Warm weather expedition

In May and June and again in August and September Seabourn Pursuit will operate voyages around Papua New Guinea and West Papua, Indonesia.

In June, July and August Seabourn Pursuit will cruise the Kimberley between Broome and Darwin. The company made its debut in the Kimberley with Seabourn Sojourn in 2019, with Sojourn returning again this year.

‘I am so excited about these voyages because Seabourn Pursuit allows us to take our guests to completely different and truly fascinating parts of the world,' President Natalya Leahy said.

‘Our warm-weather expeditions in the South Pacific and Kimberley region will offer guests the opportunity to dive and snorkel over incredible coral reefs, visit friendly locals and explore historic sites,’ Leahy said.
