Sarah Bretz, ContributorOceania Cruises has announced its second round of voyages setting sail in 2026, which will open for booking on Wednesday, November 13th.
Travelers can choose from over 60 new itineraries, including 17 Grand Voyages aboard three of Oceania’s smallest ships: Nautica, Regatta, and Sirena. Each of these vessels carries just 670 guests each.
“Small-ship cruising with Oceania Cruises is magical, and the onboard experiences travelers will enjoy while sailing these corners of the world are just as exceptional as each destination visited,” said Frank A. Del Rio, president of Oceania Cruises. “Thanks to their boutique size, Nautica, Regatta and Sirena can access ports of call which simply aren’t accessible to larger vessels, giving our well-traveled guests many opportunities to discover new favorite destinations.”
The new sailings will offer passengers the opportunity to explore further, with the small ships able to visit less-expected destinations such as Tortola in the Caribbean; the Turkish island of Bozcaada; Maputo, the capital of Mozambique; and Karlskrona, a Swedish city spread over 30 islands.
Oceania Cruises’ small ships spend between 30 and 50 percent more time in each port than premium cruise lines, including many overnight stays.
