Princess Cruises has announced its 2028 World Cruise onboard Coral Princess.
The cruise will take place across 115-nights, with a globe-spanning journey to 49 destinations across 24 countries and five continents – featuring 39 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, more overnight and late-night stays, and a maiden call to Mossel Bay, South Africa.
Departing January 3, 2028, roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale, or Los Angeles, the 115-night sailing offers guests the opportunity to experience the world.
Onboard 2,000-capacity Coral Princess, guests will cross the Equator and International Date Line on this grand exploration covering 36,000 nautical miles. The itinerary transits the legendary Panama Canal before immersing guests in the natural beauty and vibrant cultures of Hawaii and the South Pacific, including Samoa and Fiji. The voyage continues to Australia and New Zealand, showcasing iconic cities such as Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland, along with extraordinary wildlife and landscapes.
Coral Princess then ventures across the Indian Ocean to remote island gems including Mauritius and Réunion Island, before arriving in South Africa for an overnight stay in Cape Town and a special maiden call to Mossel Bay. Mossel Bay is home to a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring coastal caves that hold some of the earliest evidence of modern human behaviour, dating back more than 160,000 years.
Sailing north along Africa’s western coast, the journey continues into the Mediterranean with visits to Barcelona, Sicily, and the Adriatic Sea, including Dubrovnik, as well as Casablanca, before crossing the Atlantic Ocean back to North America.
“Our 2028 World Cruise is an unparalleled voyage designed for travellers to see the world in a meaningful, immersive way – with more overnight stays, more time in port, deeper cultural connections and unforgettable moments at every turn,” said Jim Berra, Princess Cruises Chief Commercial Officer. “Guests will embark on an exceptional and deeply rewarding journey with extraordinary exploration, effortlessly wrapped in Princess’ signature warmth.”
