📸 Happy World Photo Day!

One of the best parts of what we do is getting to see some incredible ships, destinations and, of course, plenty of amazing food along the way.

So, to celebrate World Photography Day, we’ve looked back through our camera rolls and picked out a few of our favourite shots taken by the team. From beautiful views at sea and destinations around the world to life onboard some incredible ships 🌍

We’re currently onboard Crystal , sailing from Málaga to Barcelona, with calls in Cartagena, Alicante and Castellón🚢

After embarking in Málaga, we spent some time exploring the ship before cocktails in Palm Court and dinner at Waterside. Was absolutely delicious!

We’ve also experienced one of Crystal’s much-loved traditions, White Night, with an evening of music, drinks and plenty of white! 🤍

It’s been a fantastic start to our time onboard as we continue towards Barcelona. More updates coming!

Our second time onboard EXPLORA III and she continues to impress ✨

Docked in Southampton today, we explored the ship from top to bottom, dined in Fil Rouge and took a closer look at the suites, including the beautiful new Owner’s Residence designed by Patricia Urquiola.

So, what sets EXPLORA III apart from EXPLORA I and II? The Cellar wine bar, Shore Club on Deck 11 and the only padel court at sea are all exclusive to this ship🎾

Add to that luxury boutiques, an art partnership with Claridge’s Fine Art and the adults-only Helios pool, and there’s plenty that makes EXPLORA III stand out!

Today, we had the pleasure of spending the day onboard Crystal Serenity in Southampton ✨

From exploring the ship and hearing from Stephen Joyner to enjoying lunch featuring dishes from different restaurants onboard, it was a fantastic insight into the Crystal experience.

We also had a surprise guest onboard, entertainer Tom Ball, who many will recognise from Britain’s Got Talent, which made the day all the more memorable. A lovely day of learning, dining and networking 🛳️ 🌊 🍨
