As Alaskan wilderness springs to life in the summer, there is no better way to explore this magnificent, untamed land than from the comfort of the luxurious Regatta. Along the way, take in the spectacular scenery of the Inside Passage from the ship’s decks, and keep an eye open for otters, whales, porpoises and sea lions. Near Ketchikan, guests can kayak through Tongass National Forest to view bald eagles, seals, jumping salmon and starfish. In Juneau, hike the Trail of Time for splendid vistas of Mendenhall Glacier. An exhilarating bike ride around the village of Hoonah on Icy Strait allows for an intimate look at Alaska’s largest Tlingit settlement plus marvelous views of forests and pristine waters. Butchart Gardens, a prime Victoria attraction, blooms from March through October and draws visitors from near and far.
Experience the relaxed country club ambiance of the Oceania line aboard the Regatta, where cruisers can pamper themselves in the state-of-the-art Canyon Ranch SpaClub before a night of dinner and dancing. This facility offers massage, body and skin care treatments, an extensive gym and weight room, thalassotherapy room, whirlpools, a thermal suite and completes beauty salon. Additionally, the SpaClub conducts fitness and yoga classes, as well as various lifestyle workshops. Six onboard restaurants provide a variety of options, from alfresco Mediterranean dining at Tapas on the Terrace to gourmet cuisine in the Grand Dining Room, where tuxedo-clad waiters serve six-course meals while a string quartet plays in the background. Evening entertainment can be found in the ship’s casino or one of its eight bars, including a martini bar and Grappa, the perfect spot for a nightcap. Attention to detail extends to the staterooms, where goose down pillows and plush duvets ensure a good night’s sleep.
