Azamara makes Pitcairn Island maiden call
Azamara Cruises ship Azamara Onward’ has completed a rare port call at remote Pitcairn Island during its 2024 World Cruise.
It is a first for the cruise line to a place where few cruise ship guests get the opportunity to visit.
The island is known for unpredictable weather patterns.
“The weather usually does not cooperate, and there are no bays or coves for the ship to anchor in,” said Michael Pawlus, Head of Itinerary Planning at Azamara.
“This is the very first time in my career that I have seen the weather allow for guests to go ashore on Pitcairn Island.”
The island is home to only about 50 residents – descendants of the HMS Bounty mutineers and Polynesians.
Azamara’s 2025 World Cruise is on sale.
The 155-night expedition explores 37 countries.
