YouTube Video Description

We arrived at Mystery Island to unexpected heavy swells. Only 900 passengers were able to tender to the Island before it was deemed too dangerous to operate the tenders. How did those passengers get back to the ship? Final port of the cruise was Noumea where we explored the local park & shops. 0:00 Introduction 0:38 Mystery Island 5:38 Noumea 9:44 Sailaway
