Carnival Encounter Shore Excursions for Upcoming Itineraries

Best Carnival Encounter Shore Excursions and Tours

Sailing from Brisbane’s riverfront or Singapore’s skyline, Carnival Encounter traces a route rich in colour, culture and coral. Pre- or post-cruise, Brisbane’s South Bank and Mount Coot-tha viewpoints set the tone, while Singapore’s hawker centres and Gardens by the Bay offer a flavour-packed overture to Asia. Once at sea, the South Pacific takes centre stage. At Vanuatu’s Mystery Island, glass-clear shallows and reef gardens make for effortless snorkelling, while Port Vila tempts with its bustling market and rainforest cascades. New Caledonia brings contrast: Noumea’s bays and the Tjibaou Cultural Centre showcase Kanak heritage, and the Isle of Pines is all talc-white sands and the famed natural pool at Oro. In Fiji, Lautoka leads to sugar-country scenery, the Garden of the Sleeping Giant and thermal mud pools; Suva balances the Fiji Museum’s history with rainforest trails at Colo-i-Suva. On tiny Dravuni Island, a short hill walk rewards with widescreen reef views. Papua New Guinea is a revelation: Alotau’s Milne Bay culture, Kiriwina’s village life and yam houses, Rabaul’s steaming Tavurvur volcano, and the emerald lagoons of the Conflict Islands. Along Australia’s Top End, Darwin pairs WWII sites with croc-spotting on the Adelaide River, while Cairns opens the door to the Great Barrier Reef and rainforest. Scenic cruising by remote Willis Island adds a Coral Sea flourish; Bali’s temple-dotted shores and Norfolk Island’s convict-era ruins round things off. For well-planned days ashore, FindMyExcursions is a trusted option for discovering and booking. Popular Carnival Encounter shore excursions and curated Carnival Encounter tours help you tap into each port’s best, with seasonal nuances—dry-season markets in Darwin or calmer winter seas off Queensland—guiding the perfect timing.
