Emerald Cruises recently announced that its 100-passenger oceangoing yachts Emerald Azzurra and soon-to-launch Emerald Sakara will spend the 2023 and 2024 winter seasons in the warm waters of the Caribbean and Central America.

To sweeten the deal, Emerald Cruises is offering guests a complimentary premium drinks package on all new bookings of a 2023 or 2024 Caribbean or Central American sailing when booked by September 30, 2022. The premium drinks package represents a value of $1,100 CAD per couple based on an eight-day cruise. Advisors should reference the code DRINKC22 when booking to receive the drinks package for their clients.

Ten distinct itineraries range from eight to 15 days and will take guests to islands in the Grenadines, Virgin Islands, and West Indies, as well as ports in Puerto Rico, Panama, Costa Rica and Colombia.

Those looking for an extended holiday may want to consider the grand 15-day Discover the Caribbean In Depth between San Juan, Puerto Rico and St. John's, Antigua with ports of call in the US and British Virgin Islands, St. Barts, St. Kitts, Martinique, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, St. Lucia, and Guadeloupe.

Or, cruisers can visit the historic city of Cartagena, Colombia and travel through the Panama Canal before exploring the picturesque islands and towns of the Caribbean on the 11-day Southern Caribbean Delights & Panama Canal. A variety of shorter, eight-day sailings are also available, along with an alternate 15-day itinerary.

A first for yacht cruising, Emerald Azzurra features just 50 luxuriously appointed suites, more than 88% of them with balconies, with more space per guest than similar vessels of her size.

The yacht also features a large infinity pool, spa with infrared sauna, gym and marina platform complete with SEABOBs, paddleboards and snorkelling equipment available for guests to enjoy. A fleet of the latest in electronic bikes from Gocycle are also available on board, ideal for local village trips and active explorations.
