Windstar Cruises has opened its summer 2028 Europe season, giving travel advisors 348 itinerary combinations across five yachts sailing the Mediterranean and Northern Europe from March through October.
The lineup spans quick European getaways designed to pair with longer vacation itineraries. The 2028 program also adds new ports and more ways for repeat Europe travelers to see familiar destinations from a small-yacht perspective.
Germany, Ireland & More
Among the new options is an expanded Germany program aboard Star Pride, including sailings through the Kiel Canal and Elbe River, plus calls at Hamburg, Berlin and Binz/Rügen.
Windstar is also adding Inis Mor in Ireland’s Aran Islands to its port lineup. The new call joins an expanded British Isles program aboard Star Explorer, Windstar’s newest yacht, with experiences including scenic cruising along the Cliffs of Moher, city-center docking in Cork, Waterford crystal and foraging tours.
In the Mediterranean, Windstar is building on its established Greece, Italy, France and Croatia programs with enhanced Grand Prix sailings, a Mystery Cruise roundtrip from Athens and longer exploration opportunities. Wind Spirit will return to the Adriatic for an extended season of one-week sailings between Venice and Dubrovnik, with consecutive voyages that can be combined into a two-week trip without repeating ports.
