The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has opened reservations for its Summer 2027 Mediterranean and Northern Europe season, unveiling 50 new voyages aboard its luxury yachts Evrima and Ilma. Sailing between April and October 2027, the season will feature a blend of iconic destinations and hidden gems, from the fjords of Norway to the beaches of Greece, promising travellers a refined and deeply immersive way to explore Europe’s storied coastlines.
The new season will introduce 12 first-time ports of call across France, Denmark, Norway, Germany, Spain, and Italy, expanding the brand’s reach while maintaining its boutique approach to yachting. Highlights include La Rochelle, France, with its historic harbor and medieval charm, and Zadar, Croatia, where passengers can enjoy sail-aways accompanied by the sounds of the city’s famous Sea Organ. In Northern Europe, Aarhus and Travemünde join the lineup, while San Sebastián, Santander, and A Coruña highlight the rich culture and cuisine of northern Spain.
The company will also debut Tilbury, London as a new turnaround port, offering convenient access for Northern Europe voyages. Meanwhile, the Adriatic itineraries will feature frequent stops in Dubrovnik and Kotor, and voyages across the Greek Isles will expand with new four- to seven-night options focused on leisure, discovery, and seaside serenity.
“Our summer 2027 itineraries highlight The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s vision of travel at sea, where craftsmanship, meaningful experiences, and legendary service come together to create unforgettable journeys,” said Ernesto Fara, President of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection. “These new voyages invite deeper exploration and connection with the culture, history, and beauty of the Mediterranean and Northern Europe.”
