Midnight Ferry – Nagasaki from Busan

About this cruise

You leave Busan on August 28, 2026 and come back 1 nights later with a tan and a few good stories. The route visits Nagasaki. The trip wraps in Nagasaki, so you won't retrace your steps. It splits nicely: 1 days seeing places and 0 days doing nothing at all. Tokyo's neon at one port, Kyoto's temples at the next. You cover centuries in a few days. When you're not ashore, Costa Serena holds 3,014 guests across 13 decks. It's a big ship, with plenty to keep you busy. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Busan has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 1-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
