EMERALD AZZURRA

Emerald Azzurra, the first superyacht from the line that is predominantly known for river cruising, debuts in March. Carrying just 100 passengers in 50 cabins – most of which feature balconies – there’s plenty of space in which to simply relax. Although the ship is intimate in size, you’ll find more than enough entertainment on board, with two bars, a restaurant, spa, gym, an infinity-style pool and a water sports platform. Emerald Azzurra kicks off its maiden season in the Red Sea before heading to the Mediterranean for summer and autumn.

Aneight-dayMediterranean Enchantment cruise from Athens to Dubrovnik on April 9,2022, costs from £4,366 per person for a balcony suite (01612331983;emeraldcruises.co.uk).
