The sun-kissed calm of the Mediterranean Sea is the perfect setting for an ocean cruise on board our exquisite brand-new MS Swallow luxury yacht. Exclusively chartered for our 2020 itineraries, this contemporary yacht has been specially designed to sail the Dalmatian coast’s many attractive isles and to dock in small ports. You’ll be welcomed on board by our friendly captain and knowledgeable crew, who’ll be available to answer any questions you might have and to recommend their pick of an area’s restaurants and bars to try on your free evenings. Home to the contemporary luxuries of a boutique hotel, an intimate 18 cabins, all with en-suite and complimentary Wi-Fi, mean you’ll only have to unpack once, and every evening you’ll return to the comfort of your queen-size or twin bed, complete with luscious linens for the most restorative night’s sleep. Intimate and spacious in equal measure, a maximum guest number of 36 ensures you can spend time enjoying a drink from our extensive bar, reading in the lounge, or relaxing on a sun lounger on the Sunny Deck, with abundant room to roam. And, you’ll have the opportunity to dip into the crystal-clear waters for swim stops, made easier by the ship’s innovative swim platform and specially fitted steps to make the transition seamless. The air-conditioned restaurant provides a comfortable space to enjoy a daily breakfast buffet, as well as lunch and dinner on selected days. And, as part of Emerald Waterways’ promise of Exceptional EmeraldVALUE, wine, beer and soft drinks are complimentary with lunch and dinner. You’ll be treated to excellent cuisine, with the most sensational of views, as the beauty of this Mediterranean archipelago pass by your window.
