Benoa shore excursions for Ponant Cruises

Ponant Cruises has 3 ships that stop in Benoa: Aqua Blu, Le Soleal and Paul Gauguin. Find your ship and sail date in the schedule on this page to see the tours that fit your day in port.

Ponant Cruises ships stop in Benoa 17 times between November 2026 and September 2028. The schedule on this page lists every date with the ship’s hours in port.

Pick your cruise line, ship and sail date in the cruise finder. Your cruise page shows every day of your trip, the hours your ship is in Benoa, and the tours for that day: close to port, quick tours and visitor favorites.

Book this way and our Guaranteed Return to Ship has you covered.

If your tour is canceled because of the weather, we’ll offer you another time that day that still fits your ship. If there isn’t one, you get a full refund or, if you prefer, the same amount toward an excursion at another port of call. Bookings marked All Sales Final are not refunded.
