Windstar Cruises

Windstar Cruises runs an intimate, yacht-style kind of cruising that pairs immersive itineraries with strong food and close, personal service. The fleet of small sailing ships and all-suite motor yachts carries between 148 and 342 guests, which opens up lesser-traveled ports, quiet harbors, and genuine cultural encounters. The result is travel that feels personal, unhurried, and rich in detail.

Yacht-Style Cruising That Goes Beyond the Expected

Windstar's small ships suit travelers who want discovery and quality without excess. Whether you sail under billowing white canvas or aboard a sleek all-suite motor yacht, the feel on board is casually luxurious, with personal service and local connection at the center of the day.

• Intimate ships with a relaxed, uncrowded feel and a high crew-to-guest ratio
• Access to small ports, scenic anchorages, and UNESCO World Heritage sites
• Regionally inspired menus created with the James Beard Foundation
• A water sports platform, an open-bridge policy, and an easygoing onboard mood
• No formal nights, no casinos, and no large crowds, just immersive travel at your own pace

From the sun-soaked harbors of the Greek Isles to the remote coves of Tahiti, Windstar brings guests close to the character of each place it visits.

Immersive Itineraries Across the Globe

Windstar's voyages reach the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, the Caribbean, Central America, Asia, and the South Pacific. Each itinerary pairs the marquee ports with smaller, less-touristed stops, for an insider's view of some of the world's most compelling regions.

Signature Voyages Include:

• Treasures of the Greek Isles, sailing into whitewashed villages, quiet beaches, and ancient ruins across Greece and Turkey.
• Tahiti and the Tuamotu Islands, taking in French Polynesia with overnights in Bora Bora and calls at untouched atolls.
• Star Collector Voyages, extended itineraries that link multiple cruises into one continuous run across regions.
• Windward Islands Surf and Sunsets, exploring the lush scenery and vibrant culture of the Caribbean's most scenic isles.
• Icons of Southeast Asia, a boutique route through the culture of Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia.

Windstar's shore excursions and optional Destination Discovery Events go deeper into local history, food, and culture.
