From Montréal to Miami · North America · 12 nights
Sailing from late 2027, Oceania Aurelia is the result of a complete redesign of Oceania Nautica, reducing the guest capacity and reimagining the ship’s onboard spaces to create an intimate yet spacious vessel, purposefully designed for extended global journeys.
Oceania Aurelia will debut in late 2027 as the result of a
programme which will completely reimagine and enhance Oceania
Nautica. The ship’s guest capacity will be reduced from 670 to 476
and over half the accommodation will be designed as spacious
suites, before re-emerging as Oceania Aurelia, a ship which will
undertake longer voyages including the 2028 and 2029 World Cruises
and several Grand Journeys.
Bilingual Montréal is Québec's largest city, a vibrant island metropolis with a distinctive blend of old style European charm and thrusting modernity. Architectural highlights include the beautiful Basilique Notre-Dame-de-Montréal, and the city also boasts the world's third largest botanical garden. Winters here can be harsh, but in summer the city comes alive with festivals, including the famous International Jazz Festival in June/July. Montréal is also a real Mecca for foodies, and can pose a serious threat to the waistline, with all manner of gastronomic treats on offer.
Québec City, the capital of French-speaking Canada, is one of the North American continent’s most beguiling cities. The pretty old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a joy to behold; the cobbled streets and church spires are enclosed within the old city walls, and many of the buildings date back to the 17th century
The stunning Saguenay fjord is the fourth largest in the world, and the only fjord in North America navigable by cruise ship. The point where the fjord meets the colder waters of the St Lawrence river is rich in krill, which makes this a great destination for whale watching.
The natural harbour at Halifax is the second largest in the world after Sydney, and this charming city has a proud maritime heritage. Take a stroll along the historic waterfront, delve into the vibrant arts scene or explore the beautiful coastal scenery of Nova Scotia.
St George’s was the first permanent British settlement in Bermuda and the first capital, situated at the eastern end of the islands. The town's charming historic architecture has earned it UNESCO World Heritage Site status, and there are several interesting museums, forts and churches.
Downtown Miami is a destination in its own right, with a host of world class galleries, but it's still Miami Beach that draws the biggest crowds. The Art Deco district around South Beach is very much back in vogue, with new restaurants, bars and luxury developments sprouting up all over the place.
