Azamara Cruises, renowned for its immersive Destination Immersion® and Extended Destination Days, celebrated a historic milestone with the maiden call of its latest vessel, Azamara Onward, to Easter Island during the 2024 World Cruise. This inaugural visit marked the cruise line’s debut to the remote island, famed for its enigmatic moai statues and rich cultural heritage.

Guests aboard Azamara Onward had the opportunity to explore Easter Island’s breathtaking volcanoes, verdant landscapes, and iconic moai statues, which number nearly 1,000 across the island.

This maiden call underscores Azamara’s dedication to crafting distinctive itineraries that blend adventure, cultural immersion, and discovery.

Travel enthusiasts eager to experience Azamara’s next voyage to Easter Island are encouraged to secure their spots on the cruise line’s 2026 World Cruise. Easter Island features prominently in this 155-night expedition, which spans more than 35 countries. With 55 late nights and overnights, 60 Extended Destination Days, 3 exclusive World Cruise events, and 10 AzAmazing Celebrations, Azamara’s 2026 World Cruise promises a deeper connection to each captivating wonder and the diverse array of cultures that surround them.
