It's a seamless blend of five-star service and the adventurous spirit of a private yacht expedition.

Introducing the exquisite Emerald Kaia

The 2026 season marks a spectacular milestone with the launch of the next-generation superyacht, Emerald Kaia. This breathtaking vessel is set to make her debut with an inaugural season sailing the sun-drenched coastlines of the Greek Islands and Türkiye. Custom-built for immersive exploration, Emerald Kaia boasts innovative features designed for ultimate comfort and luxury. Unwind in the new Observation Sun Deck's Spa Pool, relax in a private cabana, or enjoy an open-air workout in the expanded gym. The ship’s enhancements include larger, more opulent suites and a unique Night Market Grill, offering an exclusive Asian-style private dining experience. Emerald Kaia represents the next chapter in luxury yachting, promising an unparalleled way to experience the magic of the Mediterranean.

Curated journeys to timeless destinations

An Emerald Cruises itinerary is a masterpiece of cultural immersion and leisurely discovery. The 2026 Mediterranean season is rich with voyages that connect you to the soul of each destination. Glide through the ancient Corinth Canal, a feat of engineering, on a 12-day journey from Athens. Explore the whitewashed villages of Mykonos and Santorini, or step back in time at the UNESCO World Heritage site of Delos. You can discover the secrets of the Cave of the Apocalypse on Patmos or wander through the historic site of Bodrum’s Mausoleum of Halicarnassus. Each stop is an invitation to engage your senses, from guided tours of historic landmarks with EmeraldPLUS experiences to invigorating hikes and bike rides with EmeraldACTIVE excursions.

Where indulgence meets adventure

Life on board is a perfect balance of rejuvenation and excitement. The innovative Marina Platform at the yacht's stern lowers to sea level, creating your own sanctuary for aquatic fun. Plunge into the crystal-clear waters for a swim, try your hand at paddleboarding, or feel the thrill of a SEABOB water scooter. For moments of pure bliss, the Elements Spa & Wellness Centre awaits. Indulge in a pampering treatment, detoxify in the infrared sauna, or find your Zen in the salt therapy lounge. As evening descends, enjoy nightly entertainment in the stylish Amici Bar & Lounge or savour a cocktail at the Sky Bar, sharing stories with loved ones as the stars blanket the Mediterranean sky.
