Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful cruise ships to sail from Australia, P&O’s Pacific Dawn is now even more breathtaking following a multi-million dollar refurbishment in 2014.

Here are five reasons why the new-look Pacific Dawn really is “like no place on Earth”

Best onboard dining experiences

P&O invites you to take your reservation in Pacific Dawn’s enhanced Waterfront Restaurant. The popular restaurant has been given new life with relaxing shades of blue and sophisticated table settings. Watch the ocean light sparkle off the new elegant wall of wine and glass artwork. Feeling indulgent? Dine at the Chef’s Table, where the Executive Chef will enthral you with dishes of classic cuisine paired with the finest wines. This adds to the numerous unforgettable aboard dining experiences to be enjoyed – from sushi at the Luna Asian restaurant to shrimps on the barbie at The Grill.

More eye-popping, throat-gulping high adrenaline experiences

P&O Cruises is known for its high adrenaline adventure ships. In 2014, Pacific Dawn joins her sister ship Pacific Jewel to take the title of the largest adventure parks at sea. If you thought that watching acrobats flying around the Atrium and zip-lining across the top deck were the most highly charged activities – think again. There are new exclusive adrenaline rushes to experience on the Boulder Wall and Walk the Plank. And if that’s still not enough you can always join the P&O Boot Camp at Sea!

Decadence by the pool

If lounging around the pool is more your style, Pacific Dawn’s in-vogue pool area with new modern deck tables and seating will be just what you desire. You can enjoy your very own hammock next to the chic new bar. All this is just a taste of the exciting things to come with P&O’s new ships Pacific Aria and Pacific Eden.

Like No Place on Earth

Want to step aboard one of the most beautiful cruise ships to sail from Australia? Pacific Dawn is the ship for you. It’s one of the first P&O ships to carry the stylish new navy and white livery. And the new tagline emblazoned on the ship’s hull reminds everyone that you’re being carried on an adventure “Like No Place on Earth”.

Breathtaking destinations

Pacific Dawn departs Brisbane to explore the South Pacific islands of Suva, Mystery Island, Noumea and more, on seven-night cruises. Closer to home, she sails to the Great Barrier Reef calling at the Whitsundays, Cairns and Port Douglas along the way. Revive yourself with a short getaway to Sydney and marvel at the iconic harbour views as you sail under the Sydney Harbour Bridge. While on Moreton Island, you can take snorkelling tours to the shipwrecks, take the leap with paragliding and let wild dolphins eat out of your hands.

So if you’re looking for a cruise holiday of a lifetime, Pacific Dawn offers adventure and escapism like you've never seen it
