Bookings are now open for Atlas Ocean Voyages’ 2027 solar eclipse expedition.
The voyage will depart July 27, 2027 from Barcelona, Spain, then spend eight nights sailing through the Mediterranean to destinations in Spain and Portugal.
On August 2, 2027, it will get into position at sea to take in the total eclipse, with insights from astronomer Jonathan H. Ward. The voyage concludes in Lisbon, Portugal.
Some of the highlights of the trip include an overnight in Ibiza featuring a curated wine tasting in Santa Gertrudis, an exploration of Cartagena’s historic World War II submarine tunnels and a late night in port at Puerto Banús to visit the ancient city of Ronda.
Fares start at $9,999 per person and include Atlas’ Explorer’s Choice Amenity. Guests may choose between an air credit savings of up to $1,000 per stateroom, free unlimited Wi-Fi or a pre-cruise hotel night.
“The very best place to experience a solar eclipse is at sea, where the horizon is unobstructed and the view is simply perfect,” says James A. Rodriguez, president and chief executive officer of Atlas Ocean Voyages. “This specially curated Mediterranean journey not only offers guests a front-row seat to one of nature’s most awe-inspiring phenomena, but also celebrates the culture, cuisine, and history of the region through our signature Epicurean Expeditions programming."
