Ocean Discovery – Kristiansand, Copenhagen & Warnemunde

About this cruise

Clear the calendar from July 22, 2028. This one's 28 nights from Southampton, and the route visits Kristiansand, Copenhagen and Warnemünde (Rostock), with additional stops along the Baltic. By the time you're a week in, you'll have completely stopped checking your phone. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The Baltic route takes in Norway, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, United Kingdom, Iceland and Belgium, 9 countries, and the differences show up in the food, the architecture, and the mood. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Sky Princess keeps you well fed. 8 places to eat, with 4 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. One of the underrated parts of a longer cruise: you actually get to know people. The couple from dinner, the group at trivia, the bartender who remembers your drink. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. A July departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 28-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
