Join us as we board the Rising Son II for Bermuda’s ultimate sailing experience.

You can sunbathe on the roomy hammocks or relax in the comfort of the interior cabin with its full amenities. Sip complimentary beverages with your newfound friends as you cruise by the old remains of Bermuda fortifications. Chat with the crew about Bermuda’s past and present as you cruise toward beautiful and secluded swim sites.

The Rising Son II will anchor in shallow water, where you may choose to swim up to the nearby beach, kayak or kick around with the crew’s snorkel gear. Immerse yourself in crystal clear waters under the watchful eye of your instructors and explore the great expanses of pristine reef.

After 1 1/2 hours of playtime, you’ll be welcomed back aboard for unlimited complimentary Rum Swizzles. Let the island music get you into the vacation spirit as you head out for another hour of true catamaran sailing. Bring sunscreen, a towel and your sense of adventure.

After booking your cabin on Pride of the Ocean, our cruise associate, Geisha Cumberbatch will contact you to ask if you’d like to be part of this exciting group excursion. For the many of you who have already booked your cabin with us and would like to contact Geisha directly, she can be reached at (866) 432-0050 (toll-free), or email Geisha with questions at g.cumberbatch@cruiseone.com.

Don’t be forced to walk the plank, or worse yet ride the water slide, for not having your camera at the ready and missing those magic moments during your upcoming trip to Bermuda. Leave the photography to us!

In 2014, we will begin our new Pride of the Ocean Exclusive Photography Program, offering our guests a complimentary private web page with a set of your own exclusive personal photographs from the trip, taken by a professional photographer while on the cruise, as a souvenir of the trip. This is in addition to the great films, great people, great food, and great places that you experience as part of a Pride of the Ocean cruise.

Former Vice President of Operations at TLA Releasing and current film producer, Kelly A. Burkhardt, will be joining Pride of the Ocean’s New York to Bermuda cruise on June 1-8, 2014. In addition to her filmmaking skills, Kelly is also a professional photographer and will be Pride of the Ocean’s official photographer for 2014, ensuring that you are always camera ready.

We’d like to thank Richard Davis for capturing so many great memories as the official photographer for our 2013 cruise in Alaska. If you missed seeing Richard’s breathtaking photographs from Alaska, click here to see those, as well as photographs from our prior cruises.
