Emerald Cruises

Step onboard an Emerald yacht and you’ll discover a very different way to cruise. With no more than 128 guests, these sleek, modern superyachts slip into the smaller harbours and hidden bays that bigger ships simply can’t reach, from the white-sand beaches of the Seychelles to the chic marinas of the Mediterranean and the islands of the Caribbean.

Part of the Scenic Group, Emerald Cruises is built around relaxed, all-inclusive luxury. Fine dining, drinks, Wi-Fi, gratuities and hand-picked shore excursions are all included, so you can unpack once and simply enjoy the view. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just want a more intimate way to see the world, an Emerald yacht feels more like a private escape than a cruise.
