The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has opened reservations for its summer 2028 European season, comprising 52 voyages aboard Evrima and Ilma. The four- to nine-night sailings will operate from late April through October across the Mediterranean and Northern Europe.
The program introduces two ports of call: Gijón, on Spain’s northern coast, and Portovenere, an Italian Riviera town near the Cinque Terre. Ilma will also spend more time in the Greek Isles and the Adriatic. Round-trip options will be available from Rome, Monte Carlo, Athens, Venice, and Reykjavík, complementing itineraries between European ports.
“The destinations our guests remember most are often the ones where they form the strongest connections, with the places they visit, the people they meet, and the moments they experience along the way,” said Ernesto Fara, president and CEO of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection. “Our summer 2028 season reflects that belief, bringing together itineraries that encourage guests to spend more time engaging with each place in a way that feels personal and authentic.”
Among the Mediterranean departures is a seven-night Evrima voyage from Nice to Rome on May 14, 2028, calling in Cannes, Portofino, Portovenere, and Elba. A seven-night Athens round-trip aboard Ilma, departing May 9, visits Mykonos, Santorini, Patmos, Amorgos, and Nafplio. Another Ilma itinerary, sailing round-trip from Rome on July 27, includes Valletta, Taormina, and Amalfi.
In Northern Europe, a nine-night Evrima voyage from London to Copenhagen departs July 12. Its route takes in Norway’s coastline and fjords, with calls including Haugesund, Geiranger, Kristiansand, and Aalborg.
Guests can add group, private or custom excursions to the sailings. Options range from a helicopter flight over Mallorca followed by a winery tasting to oyster harvesting at a family-run farm in Croatia’s Mali Ston Bay. Other experiences include exploring Milos by Jeep, cruising from Portofino to San Fruttuoso and taking a helicopter trip over Iceland’s waterfalls, glaciers and lava fields with a remote landing.
Evrima accommodates up to 298 guests in 149 suites, while Ilma carries up to 448 guests across 224 suites. Every accommodation aboard both yachts has a private terrace.
