Emerald Cruises is thrilled to announce the return of its award-winning superyacht, Emerald Azzurra, to the Caribbean for the Winter 2025-2026 season. From December 2025 to March 2026, Emerald Azzurra will join her sister ship, Emerald Sakara, offering exclusive voyages across some of the region’s most sought-after destinations. This decision comes in response to the overwhelming success of the brand’s yacht cruises and the growing consumer demand for intimate, luxury travel options.

Enhanced Caribbean Itineraries

Emerald Azzurra will sail weekly between San Juan, Puerto Rico, and St. John’s, Antigua, calling on intimate ports and coves along the way. On the Caribbean Yachting Hideaways route, guests will enjoy idyllic stops at destinations like Culebra’s azure waters, the charming town of Esperanza on Vieques Island, and the tranquil beaches of Cruz Bay on St. John, USVI. Additional highlights include Virgin Gorda and Gustavia on Saint Barthélemy on the Caribbean Yachting Discovery itinerary, delivering a mix of natural beauty and vibrant culture. These carefully curated voyages offer a luxurious island-hopping experience perfectly suited to the superyacht’s intimate design. Those seeking to explore more of the Caribbean may book consecutive week-long sailings with only one repeating port.

During the same season, sister yacht Emerald Sakara will sail weekly throughout the Caribbean between Bridgetown, Barbados, and Marigot, St. Martin.

A Unique Yachting Experience

“Our luxury yachts offer a distinctive and sophisticated way to explore some of the world’s most breathtaking destinations, particularly in the Caribbean, where intimate access to secluded islands and vibrant cultures sets us apart,” said Glen Moroney, Founder and Owner of Scenic Group. “The demand for these experiences reflects a growing desire for personalised, high-end travel, and we are proud to provide something truly unmatched in the market.”

Spring Mediterranean Itineraries

Pre- and post-winter season, both yachts will return to the Mediterranean in April 2026, offering newly expanded autumn and spring itineraries. These include Historical Echoes, a voyage from Larnaca to Athens, and Mediterranean Crossroads, from Athens to Valletta, Malta. These itineraries are designed to provide guests with a deeper cultural and culinary immersion in the region’s most alluring destinations.

Experience the Emerald Yachting Difference

Emerald Cruises’ luxury yachts have garnered widespread acclaim, with both Emerald Azzurra and Emerald Sakara offering a truly unique yachting experience. Unlike larger ships, these intimate superyachts provide access to secluded ports and hidden gems, creating bespoke journeys tailored to discerning travellers. With their unparalleled service, luxurious amenities, and exclusive itineraries, there’s never been a better time to experience how Emerald Cruises sets the standard in boutique cruising.
