Superyacht Luxury Made Accessible With Emerald Cruises

Think yacht cruising is only for billionaires and celebrities? Think again.

In this exciting episode of The Travel Podcast, host Hayley is joined by Lewis from Emerald Cruises to reveal how their innovative superyacht experience is bringing this once-exclusive lifestyle within reach. With just 100 guests onboard, stunning contemporary design, and itineraries that follow the sun around the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and Seychelles, Emerald Cruises is redefining what it means to set sail in style.

Picture yourself swimming off the back of a luxury yacht, exploring hidden coves on a sea scooter, or sharing sunset cocktails — all while enjoying personalised service with almost one crew member per guest. This is cruising like you’ve never experienced before. Whether you’re a seasoned ocean cruiser or someone who’s never considered a cruise before, you’ll discover why Emerald’s boutique yachts are fast becoming one of the most exciting ways to explore hidden coves, bucket-list islands, and cultural gems.
