Sea Cloud Cruises, one of the world's most storied names in cruise travel, announces its 2025 Wave Season offer with savings of up to 65% on select sailings booked by March 31, 2025. The Catch the Early Wave promotion is now available on 30 voyages across the Caribbean and Europe fleet-wide including the original Sea Cloud, which will enter a drydock at the conclusion of the 2025 season. Catch the Early Wave savings are also available on new Venice-roundtrip sailings onboard Sea Cloud Spirit, featuring an overnight docked just steps from historic St. Marks Square. And for travelers seeking a shorter "Taster Cruise," a four-night voyage on Sea Cloud II between Barcelona and Nice begins at $2,150 per guest.

"As we kickoff for our second full season focused on growing the North American market, the sales and marketing team has carefully selected 30 voyages that represent Sea Cloud Cruises' authentic tall ship sailing at its best," shares Sea Cloud Cruises President North America Mirell Reyes. "Our new Catch the Early Wave promotion provides enticing savings, including four sailings on the 1931-built original Sea Cloud and my personal favorite itinerary in 2025 – Venice roundtrip on Sea Cloud Spirit."

On each of the three sailing yachts, the sails are still traditionally hoisted by hand – an impressive and stunning job every time. There are no buttons that can simply be pressed and it takes almost a full hour until all sails catch the wind. Each voyage includes at least one day under full sail, a highlight of the Sea Cloud Cruises experience.

The Sea Cloud will spend 2025 celebrating her 94-year history before an extended scheduled drydock. This sailing legend, commissioned in 1931 by Marjorie Merriweather Post and E. F. Hutton, has been meticulously restored to Old World glamour, with original suites and classic sailing decks. Upcoming Catch the Early Wave Sea Cloud voyages for 2025 include the following:

Palma de Mallorca/Spain to Olbia/Sardinia (8 nights): Mahon/Menorca overnight, day under full sails, Alghero/Sardinia, Calvi/Corsica, Ajaccio/Corsica, Bonifacio/Corsica and Olbia/Sardinia.
