With unique itineraries and local Private Events, Windstar brings you closer to this spectacular part of the world. Cruise the Guadalquivir River, the only navigable river in Spain spanning 408 miles, to Seville. Anchor in the heart of Old Town Dubrovnik as larger cruise ships pass by. Visit a local Mediterranean market with our Windstar Chef, enjoy unique local Destination Discovery Events in interesting locales such as Giardini Naxos, Portofino, and Mallorca and see a new port almost every day with never more than one sea day.

Tahiti

It’s a match made in heaven. You on your pristine white yacht, sails billowing, and these islands, so impossibly colourful, like a box of crayons gone mad. Star Breeze is as at-home among Tahiti’s deserted motus and shallow lagoons as a tiare flower, and just as beautiful, furled or unfurled. Bliss knows no bounds. The sand massages your feet, warm water welcomes you like an old friend, ambition falls away as you watch the sun etch palm fronds on the beach. This is a place that is easy to love, difficult to leave, as so many before you have discovered. Come. Experience Bora Bora, Moorea, Fakarava, and other exotic Tahiti destinations you only dream about. Year-round sailings available.

Alaska

Mountains erupted from the tundra, rising higher than any others in North America. Glaciers clawed their way across the landscape, scratching deep fjords into the coast and scouring archipelagos from the sea. And in the aftermath of these geologic gyrations, wildlife and marine life flourished, adapting to a land of extremes. Come. Gaze upon wondrous sheets of topaz ice and rivers thick with spawning salmon. Navigate narrow fjords whose secrets are only revealed to small yacht like ours. Find your way to Russian cathedrals, Tsimshian villages, and a greater understanding of why they call this the Great Land.

Asia

Nowhere else in the world will you find such a stunning juxtaposition of ancient traditions and contemporary cultures. Mystic temples give way to soaring skyscrapers while tranquil, timeless villages neighbour pulsating, modern cities. Windstar brings you the best of both worlds, taking you to the heart of cosmopolitan marvels like Singapore, Hong Kong, Bangkok, and Tokyo and the exotic shores of small villages and unspoiled islands of Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, and the Philippines.

Canada & New England

Long before Columbus, Vikings crossed the Labrador Sea from Greenland to settle in L’Anse Aux Meadows. Centuries later, Portuguese fishermen, Basque whalers, French trappers, and English pilgrims would follow and discover a Promised Land where nature nurtures both body and soul. Here, where the sun first kisses North America, explorer Jacques Cartier found a place where “the scenery is indeed worth seeing and can’t be properly described in words.” The ravishing lighthouse-studded coast still inspires awe. Manna from the sea still delights palates. And small yachts like ours still ply these waters with a freedom denied to larger ships.

Caribbean

Candy-coloured cocktails sipped in seaside watering holes. Carefree days followed by calypso-flavoured nights. These are the siren songs that lure anyone with a small yacht and a yearning to escape to the incomparable Caribbean Islands. Whether you’re cruising through turquoise waters or lazing on powdery white beaches, the glamorous harbours and unknown coves of this area remain a hidden treasure. Sailings year-round.

Greek Isles

The Acropolis at sunset. A moonlight supper at the ancient Celsus Library in Ephesus. Walking down the Street of Knights in Rhodes accompanied by the ghosts of the past. Like arms joined in a syrtakis dance, one incomparable experience follows another across the Aegean and Sea of Marmara, and your white yacht gives you a front row seat to it all. Compare the rich blue of Santorini with that of the Iznik tiles in Istanbul’s Blue Mosque. Get deliciously lost in the labyrinthine lanes of medieval Rhodes. Cross the Dardanelles and Bosporus like the voyagers of old, waving first to one continent and then the other. May to September sailings available.

Italy

Let Windstar’s Italian cruises whisk you away to charming villages, pristine beaches and legendary cities with unique itineraries that let you discover Italy as it was meant to be seen. From the picturesque pastel towns that line the Amalfi Coast to enchanting islands such as Sicily and Elba, you’ll explore breathtaking sights in charismatic small ports and beautiful hidden harbours without missing the remarkable history of larger cities such as Rome or Venice. Discover a more intimate Italy with our local Destination Discovery Events and unwind back onboard with the pampered, personalized touch of Windstar Cruises. April to October sailings available.

Mexico

Fiestas are a way of life in Mexico, fitting for a country with so much to celebrate. A virtual aquarium offshore in the Sea of Cortez. Mayan temples bathed in desert light and shadow. Cuisines and coastlines that marry the smooth and soothing with the surprisingly sharp and dramatic. Come in search of trophy marlin, an authentic mole, the perfect beach, and find them all in Mexico. Along with an all-suite white-and-teak ship to frame each stunning sunset.

Northern Europe

Words like moor, loch, and geyser were born in this land, because no existing vocabulary could adequately describe these extraordinary landscapes. These regions could just as easily have coined a term for ambrosial summer evenings at seaside cafés, Fabergé palaces of amber and gold, and storybook cities crisscrossed by canals and flower markets, all of which are here in abundance. But as your elegant yacht traces its way through enchanting fjords and forgotten archipelagos, you won’t need words. June to September sailings available.

Panama and Costa Rica

Natural and man-made wonders combine in this exotic region where you are an explorer by day with cocktails on the fantail of your casually elegant yacht by night. Costa Rica is one of the most ecologically diverse places on earth over landscapes of rainforest, lakes, cloud forests, volcanoes, and more, boasting an impressive variety of wildlife. Learn more about their history, flora and fauna from a local Naturalist on board and transit the massive Panama Canal during daylight hours, with a memorable deckside festival. Against all this colour and adventure, your white small yacht rests at anchor awaiting your return from a delightful day of exploring. December to April sailings available.

South Pacific

Oceania’s scattered island nations bring to mind the breathtaking beaches and peacock-colored lagoons of Tahiti, but they also contain the most diverse indigenous cultures in the world. Come with us as we travel beyond the packaged resorts to experience a world few get to see. Go back to the way things used to be on tiny Niue or Maré, with no crowds, only twinkling stars at night, and a pace of life many yearn for. Discover villages that still follow traditional ways of life on Tanna, Vanuatu. Explore small Fijian communities and the untouched rainforest of the Wasali Nature Reserve near Savusavu. Add context to the postcard images the South Pacific is known for.
