CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS

Ringaskiddy
Ringaskiddy, nestled beside Cork Harbour, offers serene coastal walks along the Old Head Peninsula, a glimpse into maritime history at Ocean Escapes, and breathtaking views from the scenic Ringaskiddy Martello Tower, all surrounded by the pristine beauty of Ireland's southern coast.

St. Mary's, Isles of Scilly
Situated just off the Cornish coast, St. Mary's is the largest and most populous of the Isles of Scilly. Over 30 miles of nature trails intersect the island, guiding wanderers to hidden coves and quiet beaches. The subtle beauty of this British archipelago is perfect for fun or reflection while surrounded by nature.

Fowey
Clinging to the Cornish coast is picture-perfect Fowey. Lose track of time in riverside bookshops and quaint cafes, or take a ferry ride across the Fowey River to take in views of surrounding villages.

Cherbourg
Cherbourg on the Normandy coast has a long and storied relationship with the sea. Tour along coastal promenades, wander through fascinating quayside museums, and indulge in delicious local seafood.

The tag claims "best value at sea" - we'd be inclined to agree.
