THE BRITISH ISLES, IRELAND & FRANCE

Spend a relaxing Spring Bank Holiday aboard sleek Magellan as she sails out of Newcastle and around Britain, making several fascinating calls en route to Normandy. Pretty Tobermory on Mull, ‘Joan of Arc city’ Rouen and the sun-kissed Isles of Scilly are amongst the highlights of this truly wonderful cruise.

Depart from Dundee, and then head north to the remote Orkney Islands, calling at rugged capital Kirkwall, and then the Isle of Mull. Historic Belfast is your next port-of-call, before continuing south to County Cork port Ringaskiddy, and the sun-kissed Scilly Isles and St Peter’s Port on Guernsey, Britain’s southernmost outpost. Cross the Channel to join the Seine and follow its meandering path to medieval Rouen, with its beautifully restored city centre, the final call of this excellent ‘Round Britain’ voyage.

Depart: 1500hrs

Explore the historic capital of Orkney as Magellan docks in Kirkwall, just a mile from the historic harbour and battlefield at Scapa Flow.

Ringaskiddy, at the mouth of the river Lee, lies just around the coast from the great trading city of Cork, the historic capital of south-west Ireland.

The blue waters of the Scilly Isles welcome you to St Mary’s today.
