From Sydney, Royal Caribbean is offering a three-night sampler sailing onboard Ovation departing December 15, starting from $679 per person for a balcony stateroom.

Guests can treat themselves to manicures, pedicures or massages at the Vitality Spa, or discover dining options like rustic Italian dishes at Jamie’s Italian or a decadent five-course wine-pairing dinner at Chef’s Table.

Meanwhile from Brisbane, sail to Airlie Beach, the gateway to the Whitsundays, onboard Quantum of the Seas. The five-night Queensland cruise departs on December 1 with a balcony stateroom starting from $1,499 per person.

Guests can explore Whitehaven Beach, snorkel the Great Barrier Reef, or enjoy a rainforest hike in Conway National Park.

Onboard, holidaymakers can enjoy activities like skydiving with RipCord by iFly, riding the FlowRider and bumper cars at the SeaPlex.

For total relaxation, escape to the adults-only Solarium, an indoor retreat with soothing whirlpools and refreshing water mists.
