Following a highly successful 2023/24 season Down Under, Azamara Cruises is returning to Australia and New Zealand with two ships for a summer of eight country-intensive sailings.
Azamara Pursuit® docks in Fremantle on 18 December 2024 after a nine-night cruise from Singapore, and sets sail on a heavily booked 14-night voyage around Western Australia and South Australia on 20 December 2024. Guests will celebrate Christmas at sea and dock overnight in Sydney for the city’s always spectacular New Year’s revels.

During January and February 2025, Azamara Pursuit® will sail two more country-intensive voyages between Australia and New Zealand – 14- and 18-night itineraries that visit 13 ports – and a 14-night cruise from Sydney to Fremantle. Two new shore excursions, Oysters In Eden and a Rickshaw Tour Of Freemantle, have been added to an already exciting line up.
The ship departs from Fremantle and heads to Asia on an 18-night journey that includes port calls in Queensland and Bali before reaching Singapore. After sailing in Asia in March, she will make her way back to Europe for the northern summer.
Meanwhile, Azamara Onward® makes her second voyage to Australia and New Zealand, arriving in Auckland on 15 February 2025 on her world cruise. Over 15 nights, Azamara Onward will visit seven destinations in New Zealand and call on popular ports, Hobart and Eden, on her way to Sydney. On 20 February 2025 the ship embarks on a magnificent 22-night voyage from Sydney to Singapore, via Victoria, South Australia and Western Australian ports.
Among the many highlights of every itinerary are Azamara’s AzAmazing Evenings where guests are treated to a unique and memorable local event. Azamara Pursuit® guests have a wonderful treat in store in Adelaide: an exclusive concert by operatic pop tenor Mark Vincent at the Adelaide Town Hall.
A highlight of this season’s local sailings is the sister’s grand entrance into Sydney Harbour together on 20 February 2025.
