Lindblad Expeditions Offers New Mediterranean Itineraries Aboard Sea Cloud
Lindblad Expeditions has announced two brand-new itineraries aboard the 58-guest Sea Cloud, a luxurious 30-sail vessel that blends old-world traditions with modern-day comforts. On these new rarefied journeys, guests will discover the magic of sailing along the stunning coasts of Croatia and Slovenia or to ancient sites in the Western Mediterranean—and the thrill of life under sail on an historic ship.
A legend both of her time and today, Sea Cloud harkens back to the golden age of sailing. The four-masted barque, launched in 1931, is sumptuously appointed with the most opulent furnishings, specially chosen by her first owner, socialite Marjorie Merriweather Post. It is the perfect platform to travel among islands and along storied coasts, a bridge to history in a land bursting with it—alongside an expert expedition team.
Both itineraries are studded with archaeological landmarks, with sites both legendary and seldom seen. Built into the voyages is Lindblad Expeditions’ pioneering expedition style, designed to balance active exploration with reflection and relaxation—so guests will discover isolated beaches, small fishing villages, welcoming people, and quiet beauty.
