Emerald Azzura returns to Caribbean for winter 2025/2026

Emerald Cruises’ superyacht, Emerald Azzurra, will return to the Caribbean for the winter 2025-2026 season.

From December 2025 to March 2026, Emerald Azzurra will join her sister, Emerald Sakara, to offer exclusive voyages across some of the region’s most sought-after destinations, delivering on the continued strong demand for luxury yacht experiences.

The decision to redeploy Emerald Azzurra comes in response to the overwhelming success of the brand’s yacht cruises and growing consumer demand for intimate, luxury travel options. This change replaces the previously planned Red Sea and Seychelles itineraries, allowing both yachts to focus on providing exceptional Caribbean experiences.

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 also sail weekly throughout the Caribbean between Bridgetown, Barbados and Marigot, St. Martin.

“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 personalized, high-end travel, and we are proud to provide something truly unmatched in the market.”

Pre- and post-winter season, both yachts will return to the Mediterranean in April 2026, offering newly expanded autumn and spring itineraries, including 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.
