'We’re honored to continue our relationship with Guy Harvey, as one of the leaders in conservation education, and to further showcase the importance of preserving the beauty and well-being of marine life for future generations to enjoy,' said Andy Stuart, president and CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line. 'His passion for the ocean is inspiring and extends beyond his canvases. We’re thrilled to be partnering with him and the Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation once again on this special cruise on Norwegian Escape.'

Passengers will learn about Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation's efforts to conserve the ocean environment and hear from a panel of marine life experts and scientists from Nova Southeastern University about the importance of continued support for cleaner and safer waters through conservation and sustainability efforts.

During live painting sessions, they will also hear about how Harvey went from marine biologist to one of the world’s foremost marine wildlife artists.

At each port, Harvey and the team of experts will lead interactive presentations at local schools, educating children on a variety of marine life and ocean conservation topics.

The cruise will call at Port Canaveral, Great Stirrup Cay and Nassau.
