Champagne Bay is a corker

SYDNEY - Champagne Bay - located on the northeast coastline of Espirito Santo, the largest of Vanuatuââ¬â¢s islands - has been voted the favourite port of call in the South Pacific by P&O Cruisesââ¬â¢ passengers.

The 2008 onboard passenger survey chose Champagne Bay just ahead Fijiââ¬â¢s Yasawa Island in second spot.

Vanuatuââ¬â¢s remote Mystery Island, which was voted the number one port for P&O Cruisesââ¬â¢ passengers in 2007, ranked third and New Caledoniaââ¬â¢s Isle of Pines came in as fourth most popular.

Vanuatuan ports dominated the top five favourite ports of call for passengers in 2008, with the island of Wala rounding out the top five ports of call.

P&O Cruises latest superliner, Pacific Jewel, will visit Champagne Bay four times during 2010 while Brisbaneââ¬â¢s superliner, Pacific Dawn, will visit the port twice.
