43 Ranging from 10 to 15 nights, the voyages are designed around a combination of established destinations and more immersive experiences ashore. “Guests will discover everything from the idyllic turquoise shorelines of the Caribbean, including our private island of Harvest Caye, Belize, to the historic coastal gems along the Iberian Peninsula and western France,” says D’Silva. The excursions reflect that breadth. In Guatemala, guests can travel into the highlands to Comalapa, known for its naïf art, while an excursion from Antigua combines a catamaran cruise, swimming at Deep Bay Beach, champagne and lobster. Later in the season, a call at Le Havre, France, provides access to historic Rouen, while a Mediterranean voyage offers an excursion to the ancient Greek island of Delos from Mykonos. Each voyage has access to a selection of included shore excursions, with up to 141 available on individual sailings. The ship will then be repositioned with ‘Emerald East Coast’, a 14-night voyage from Miami to New York calling at Aruba, Curaçao, Bonaire, Grenada, St Lucia, St Barts, San Juan and Bermuda. A transatlantic crossing then links New York with Barcelona, stopping in Bermuda, Madeira and the Spanish ports of Malaga, Cartagena and Valencia. “When we craft our global itineraries, we work to ensure a balance of beloved favourites as well as undiscovered gems,” says D’Silva. “Seven Seas Prestige’s inaugural season is just the start, and future seasons will build on our core principle of destination immersion.” Seven Seas Prestige is the first ship in a new class for Regent. Built by Fincantieri at its Marghera shipyard in Italy, the 76,550gt vessel is 40 per cent larger than Regent’s previous ships but carries only 10 per cent more guests, with 411 all-balcony suites for up to 822 passengers. The interiors and suites have been designed by Studio DADO, including the Skyview Regent Suite, while SMC Architects worked on the Solara Sports Deck. Greenspan Experiential Projects has also been involved, designing, engineering and installing multiple outdoor activities. With its first season moving between tropical islands, the Panama Canal and European coastal cities, Seven Seas Prestige will introduce its new ship class through a programme that places exploration at the centre of the experience. “ We work to ensure a balance of beloved favourites as well as undiscovered gems” Seven Seas Prestige will debut on 28 December 2026 Photo: Regent Seven Seas Cruises
