Emerald Cruises Expands Caribbean Small-Yacht Program
The line is adding sailings centered on secluded coves, smaller harbors and less-visited islands aboard two 100-guest yachts.
Emerald Cruises is expanding its Caribbean and Central America program with small-ship itineraries focused on secluded coves, yacht anchorages, smaller ports and less-visited islands. The program features the 100-guest Emerald Azzurra and Emerald Sakara.
Company press materials describe Caribbean sailings through at least the 2025–2026 seasons. One report identifies as many as six routes, including Caribbean Yachting Discovery and Caribbean Yachting Hideaway, with an emphasis on small ports and quieter stops.
Schedules shared by travel retailers show departures from San Juan and Bridgetown. Calls include Bequia and Norman Island, along with smaller harbors across the Grenadines and British Virgin Islands.
Highlighted yacht amenities include an infinity-style Aqua Pool, open-air lounges and dining venues, and an aft marina platform that lowers to sea level for swimming and paddle sports.
Emerald Cruises has also published Discover and Epic journeys that combine two or three consecutive itineraries into longer voyages. The line’s brochures include Caribbean combinations such as Discover the Hidden Treasures of the Caribbean, with some itineraries lasting more than 20 nights.
