Award-winning Emerald Cruisesโ€™ stellar 2023 yacht cruising season revealed some newsworthy milestones.

Following the 2022 launch of Emerald Cruisesโ€™ first ground-breaking luxury yacht, Emerald Azzurra, twin sister Emerald Sakara set sail in August 2023 on its sold-out inaugural voyage. Both yachts redefine small-ship cruising with unrivalled comfort, world-class amenities and contemporary style.  

Late in 2023, for the first time, Emerald Cruises introduced breathtaking Caribbean & Central America itineraries, plus unveiled an exciting new yacht cruise program for 2024 to 2026. Looks like 2024 promises to be another impressive year. 

Old & new Euro favourites 

Emerald Cruisesโ€™ newly minted 2024-2026 brochure showcases a welcome return of its Mediterranean & Adriatic Sea bestsellers. Favourites include the 15-day โ€˜Discover Italy, Greece and Turkeyโ€™, cruising the Aegean Sea and 8-day โ€˜French & Italian Rivieras with Corsicaโ€™, from glamorous Cรดte dโ€™Azur via Corsica to the Eternal City, Rome.   

A highlight of the new additions is โ€˜Discover the Best of the Croatian Coastโ€™, an epic 15-day round-trip beginning and ending in Venice or Dubrovnik. This extension of the popular shorter Croatian itineraries allows even more time to explore the Adriaticโ€™s wildly beautiful islands and Medieval towns.

Seychelles & Safaris 

An expanded portfolio of new destinations with Emerald Yachts should inspire with the Red Sea & Suez Canal and Seychelles & Indian Ocean cruises commencing in late 2024.

Emerald Cruisesโ€™ fabulous collection of Seychelles itineraries also incorporates the East African coast, including Tanzania and exotic Zanzibar and Kenyaโ€™s Mombasa. 

For your ultimate adventure, the signature 16-day โ€˜Safari and Seychellesโ€™ combines a thrilling six-night safari in Kenyaโ€™s renowned game reserves and parks with numerous opportunities to spot Africaโ€™s โ€˜Big Fiveโ€™, and an idyllic seven nights cruising the Seychelles archipelago.
