The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection maps summer 2027 with new Mediterranean and Northern Europe sailings
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has opened reservations for its summer 2027 itineraries, unveiling 50 new voyages aboard Evrima and Ilma from April to October. The season blends marquee cities with lesser-traveled harbors and extended time ashore, adding 12 first-time ports across France, Denmark, Norway, Germany, Spain and Italy. New turnaround access via Tilbury, London enhances Northern Europe routing, while Adriatic programs standardize calls to Dubrovnik with frequent visits to Kotor. Shorter four to seven night programs in the Greek Isles increase flexibility, with added Marina time for swims and water sports.
The lineup expands the brand’s European footprint without losing its boutique profile at sea. Additions like La Rochelle and Zadar complement northern debuts in Aarhus and Travemünde, plus new calls in San Sebastián, Santander and A Coruña to spotlight northern Spain’s culinary and cultural diversity. Curated shoreside programs emphasize insider access and regional depth, from château dining in Bordeaux to priority entry at Porto’s Livraria Lello, off-road excursions to Mount Etna paired with estate tastings, helicopter sky-to-cellar journeys over Mallorca’s Serra de Tramuntana, and Aegean deep dives around Ephesus and the village of Caferli. On board, all-suite accommodations with private ocean-view terraces, high employee-to-guest ratios, multiple dining concepts, The Ritz-Carlton Spa and the signature Marina sustain the brand’s service proposition between immersive days ashore.
Program highlights on Evrima include a 9-night London to Copenhagen departure on July 19, 2027 through Norway’s fjords with calls in Haugesund for Hardangerfjord, Olden within Nordfjord, Ålesund and Geirangerfjord, plus Bergen and Aarhus ahead of arrival in Copenhagen. A 5-night Reykjavik round trip on August 20, 2027 traces Iceland’s north with Grundarfjörður beneath Kirkjufell, Ísafjörður, Akureyri and a crossing of the Arctic Circle before returning to Reykjavik. On Ilma, a 4-night Athens round trip on May 13, 2027 features Mykonos with access to Delos, Kuşadası for Ephesus, and Patmos for the Cave of the Apocalypse. A 7-night Rome round trip on August 24, 2027 arcs south to Trapani in Sicily for flamingo habitats and Marsala terroir near Erice, a Marina day off Gozo in Malta, Siracusa, Lipari in the Aeolians and Amalfi before returning to Rome.
Across the season, itineraries balance discovery and downtime through longer port calls and a design that pairs iconic cities with intimate harbors. Enhanced Marina programming supports leisurely seawater swims and water activities in anchorages like Piran and Nafplio, while Northern Europe sailings extend time in the fjords for unhurried scenic cruising. Each voyage layers culinary and cultural context onto coastal routes, reinforcing the collection’s positioning at the intersection of craftsmanship, meaningful experiences and high-touch service at sea.
