Discover USA's West Coast - Cruise to Both Small Communities & Large, Iconic Cities

Enjoy an expedition cruise along the West Coast of North America. This is an opportunity to discover the continent from a completely new and amazing angle. These journeys take us to both small communities and large, iconic cities.

North America is familiar for many, but the coastline is pretty much undiscovered for even seasoned travelers. The unique combination of nature, small harbors and metropolitan areas opens up a different experiences and new perspectives.  

Visit the places you have seen, read or dreamt about in a fantastic mix and a broad variety of stops along the way. Cruising along the coast enables a much greater spread of experiences than regular travel where you would have to pick a certain city or region to visit.  

Discover history and culture, nature and wildlife, local food and drink. The coastline is full of hidden gems and new discoveries. And in the oceans outside North America, you can expect to see dolphins, whales and a large number of bird species.  

West Coast. On the west coast, visit famous places as Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Santa Catalina island, Seattle and Vancouver. Enjoy a mix of sea life, including potential whale sightings, hiking, sampling of local food in the many restaurants, learning about local history and relaxing on sunny beaches. It’s a truly urban expedition along one of the most famous coastlines of the world. 

You will explore and experience many sides of North America when travelling by ship. While providing the possibility to enjoy the rich variety of stops along the way, this is not a regular cruise experience. Except to get in-depth insight into the areas visited and you will learn more about the local culture, history and wildlife. The oceans are full of exciting life and in the skies and on the shore, you will see a large number of different bird species.
