SeaDream Yacht Club has added eight new voyages to its 2021 SeaDream II program, featuring destinations in the Black Sea and Israel. After a six-year absence, the luxury boutique cruise line will return to Istanbul and the Black Sea. Furthermore, due to the popularity of the recently announced 11-day cruise to Israel in May 2021, SeaDream has added a second voyage to Israel in October of the same year. This will be the first time Israel has been offered as part of a SeaDream itinerary.
Black Sea cruises include several highlights, such as an overnight stay in Odessa, often considered the “Pearl of the Black Sea,” where guests can ascend the Potemkin Staircase, a symbol of Odessa, and step back in time to the Russian Orthodox period as they enter the Ukrainian city. In Turkey, SeaDream guests can explore the ever-magnificent Istanbul, as well as visit the vineyards and beaches of Bozcaada and the former Ottoman capital of Mudanya. Other Black Sea ports of call include Varna and Burgas in Bulgaria, and Constanta in Romania.
The new 11-day cruise to Israel will highlight Haifa, known for its stunning Hanging Gardens, and Ashdod, which provides access to major destinations like Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. There will also be a stop in Limassol, Cyprus, for the first time on a SeaDream cruise. SeaDream's two Israel cruises have been perfectly timed to take place in May and October, the best times of year to visit the region.
“It’s important for us at SeaDream to follow the sun and listen to our guests and where they want to go,” said Andreas Brynestad, Executive Vice President of SeaDream. “After all, it’s their yacht. Our guests asked us for new destinations and places we haven’t been to in a while, and we were happy to fulfill our obligation. We’ve added Israel, the Black Sea, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and other Mediterranean destinations, and we’re confident our guests will welcome these new additions.”
Other unique destinations for 2021 include Neum in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Kavala in Greece, famous for its Roman aqueduct. Additionally, an overnight stay in Casablanca will provide the perfect opportunity to experience the splendor of Marrakech, and SeaDream will also return to Bordeaux, following a pair of popular voyages to that port this year that include exceptional excursions. SeaDream's Mediterranean cruises in 2021 feature at least one overnight stay in port on every voyage, as well as no days at sea. With each new destination comes an exciting and unique SeaDream adventure.
