August Cruises

Luxury August cruises offer bountiful sunshine and some much-needed heat. Even in destinations like the Norwegian fjords, you will likely be met by sparklingly clear days revealing the entire length of breath-taking waterways like Sognefjord. In ports like Barcelona and Santorini, you can relax on tranquil beaches, and in the wilds of Alaska, you can see grizzly bears fishing for salmon.

Europe & the Mediterranean

If you want your luxury August cruise to be accompanied by peak sunshine, head to the Mediterranean. At this time of year temperatures really hot up, sometimes reaching up to 30°C. Tour Gaudi architecture in Barcelona, stroll along the old stone walls of Dubrovnik or admire the stunning luxury yachts lining harbours in Monte Carlo.

Northern Europe

August cruises don't have to be all about sunshine. Why not visit the culturally-rich shores of Scandinavia for a taste of Stockholm and Copenhagen, or explore the great outdoors in Alaska, where you can spend the long summer days hiking, cycling or kayaking?
