New Emerald ship Kaia

Emerald Cruises announce brand-new ship

A new chapter in Emerald Cruises' journey begins with our next-generation luxury ocean yacht, Emerald Kaia. This third innovative luxury yacht of the fleet builds on the spectacular success of the first two and retains the ethos of luxury small-ship cruising… but features a few more quirks.

Launching in early 2026, you’ll be able to zoom down a slide into the warm waters of the Indian Ocean from the fourth deck of this luxury yacht, bounce on a trampoline above the shimmering Adriatic or work out in an open-air gym overlooking the Mediterranean coast before jumping into the azure sea moments away for a refreshing cool-down.

Emerald Kaia will be available to book on general sale from 22nd April 2024.

The reimagined Sky Deck's cabanas and indoor/outdoor lounge give you more options for soaking up the views, while the expanded gym lets you opt for an outdoor workout followed by a dip in the sea.
