OceanWave Cruises was born out of a deep passion for the sea and a desire to redefine what it means to travel. Our journey began more than a decade ago, when a group of maritime enthusiasts and seasoned hospitality experts came together with a single vision: to create a cruise experience that was luxurious yet welcoming, adventurous yet deeply relaxing. We wanted to offer more than just transportation across the oceans — we wanted to offer a journey through inspiration, comfort, and discovery.
In the early years, we operated with a single ship, handcrafted to reflect the warmth of traditional hospitality and the elegance of modern design. Every detail — from the locally inspired cuisine to the panoramic viewing decks — was carefully planned to connect guests not only to the destinations we visited, but also to the ocean itself. That connection remains at the heart of what we do today.
As word of our unique approach spread, so did our horizons. We expanded our fleet, enhanced our services, and ventured to some of the most breathtaking corners of the world. From the icy fjords of Norway to the sun-drenched isles of the Mediterranean, our itineraries were designed to showcase the world’s beauty — while giving our guests the time and space to truly enjoy it.
But while our routes grew longer, we never lost sight of what matters most: our people. At OceanWave Cruises, we believe that hospitality begins with heart. Our crew is not just trained in excellence — they live it. Each member of our onboard team is passionate about creating a home at sea, where guests feel valued, heard, and inspired every single day.
Innovation has also been a vital part of our story. We’ve invested in greener technologies, cleaner fuel alternatives, and sustainable waste systems to reduce our environmental impact. Our ships now operate with some of the lowest emissions in the industry, and we actively support marine conservation programs in the regions we sail. For us, protecting the oceans is not an afterthought — it’s a responsibility we embrace with pride.
Our ships are floating destinations in themselves, featuring world-class dining, wellness spas, performance theaters, educational programs, and kid-friendly activities. But it’s not just about amenities — it’s about creating spaces where guests can disconnect from the rush of daily life and reconnect with the things that matter: family, nature, culture, and their own sense of wonder.
We also believe that travel should be inclusive. That’s why we offer accessible experiences for guests with different needs, languages, and backgrounds. Whether it’s step-free access, multi-language guides, or allergy-conscious menus, we aim to make everyone feel welcome and supported on board.
Today, OceanWave Cruises is proud to serve thousands of travelers each year. While much has changed since our first voyage, our purpose remains steady: to deliver extraordinary ocean journeys that enrich lives and celebrate the world’s natural beauty.
Our story is still being written — and we invite you to be part of it. Whether you’re setting sail for the first time or returning for another adventure, we welcome you aboard with open arms, open skies, and open seas. Come discover why so many travelers have found their second home with OceanWave Cruises.
Because when you travel with us, you’re not just going somewhere — you’re becoming part of a story that began on the water, is fueled by dreams, and is carried forward by you.
