Discover Croatia and Adriatic Coast onboard this boutique yacht, providing an intimate coastal curising atmosphere. Savour the informal onboard atmosphere and skip the queues while embarking and disembarking. As night falls, choose to dine ashore and experience Croatia's glamorous harbours and towns without the crowds, once the bigger cruise ships have departed. The MS Princess Eleganza is one of the few vessels her size able to sail to Montenegro and its magnificent Bay of Kotor. From locally inspired meals and al fresco lunches to sumptuous breakfasts and more, experience a range of dining experiences. Leap straight into the Adriatic Sea from the spacious swimming deck at the stern of MS Princess Eleganza.
Take a journey back in time as you immerse yourself in the richly historic Kusadasi, once the home of the Temple of Artemis, which was considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Visit one of the 365 churches and shrines that are tucked among majestic hills and valleys in the Aegean Sea's holy island of Patmos, home to pristine beaches and swimming coves. Create a perfect fusion of ocean side and historic sites as you visit two ports on one day. It's time to go aboard the all-renewed Norwegian Spirit.
