Springtime Shores: Hebrides & Isle of Man Discovery

Discover the perfect island-hopping adventure.
A22712LV | Friday 4th June 2027 | 8 nights from Liverpool

Islands, islands and more islands – this unique cruise will take you far from the tourist trail and to some of the undiscovered gems of the British Isles. Your itinerary will embrace Belfast, which has undergone a remarkable transformation; Tobermory in the Isle of Mull, famous for its picture-postcard pastel-coloured houses; and Stornoway in the Isle of Lewis, where time seems to have stood still. We will then visit Scrabster, close to the mainland’s most northerly point John O’Groats, before setting sail for Lerwick in the tranquil Shetland Islands and finally Douglas, capital of the spectacular Isle of Man, home to steam trains, tailless cats and incredible four-horned Loaghtan sheep.


CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS


 - Stornoway

Discover the rugged beauty and rich Gaelic heritage of Stornoway. Explore historical attractions like the Lewis Chessmen, delve into the island's unique culture, and experience the warm hospitality of the Outer Hebrides.


 - Scrabster

Resting on Scotland's rugged northern coast, Scrabster exudes a rich maritime history and the mystery of the Highlands. Explore the rugged beauty of nearby Dunnet Head, savour fresh seafood at Scrabster Harbour, and witness stunning views of the Pentland Firth from Holburn Head Lighthouse.


 - Lerwick

Lerwick, nestled in the Shetland Isles, whispers tales of Vikings and Scottish history. Take leisurely walks through its winding streets, learn the history of lighthouse-keeping at Bressay Lighthouse, and breathe in the salty North Atlantic breezes atop the Knab promontory.


 - Douglas

Historic Douglas on the Isle of Man offers a relaxing experience for new and returning visitors alike. Stroll along the famous seaside promenade for views of cultural sites like the Tower of Refuge, an historic sanctuary for shipwrecked sailors.
