New destination

Three new Caribbean itineraries visit the US Virgin Islands for the first time: Nov. 24 to Dec. 4, Dec. 4-13 and Dec. 13-20.

Sea Cloud Spirit follows the role model of windjammer sisters Sea Cloud and Sea Cloud II, but offers a generous number of cabins with balconies, an extensive sun deck with sunbeds, a gym with panoramic views, spa and wellness area, and the choice of an elegant menu in the restaurant or a relaxed dinner in the bistro on the lido deck.
