Norwegian Breakaway - luxury cruiser on the Baltic Sea this summer

On Friday last week, Peter checked out the Norwegian Breakaway, a giant cruise ship that slipped into the harbour in Nynäshamn. He checked out the luxurious pools, checked out (some of) the 27 restaurants, and ... filmed a chef juggling kitchen tools. This summer, you will be able to see this luxury cruiser on the Baltic Sea.

Luxury cruisers on the Baltic Sea

Norwegian Breakaway is one of a total of five Norwegian Cruise Line ships cruising in Europe this summer. Last week, the ship cast off from Helsinki and then continued to Sweden and Nynäshamn. On Friday, Peter was invited there to look at the ship.

The ship Norwegian Breakaway will take nearly 4000 passengers on nine-day cruises on the Baltic Sea during the 2018 summer season. The cruises depart from Copenhagen or Warnemünde/Rostock and go to Tallinn, St Petersburg (with overnight stay), Helsinki and Stockholm (Nynäshamn).

Different price ranges on the Norwegian Breakaway

You can travel in different price ranges and stay in everything from small "studio cabins" for one person to the most luxurious suites in "The Haven by Norwegian". If you book a luxury suite, you also get access to the more exclusive areas of the ship ...

Even if you don't buy a luxury ticket, you can access the "adult area" with a pool and large video screen, where you can hang out whenever you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of the pool. Younger travellers (11-16 year olds) also have their own space, called the Entourage Teen Lounge.

Worried about getting bored?

What if you get tired of hanging around the pool? Well, you might find your way to the climbing wall, the jogging track or the arcade. Just to give a few examples ...

There is also plenty of varied entertainment! In the 'Spiegel Tent' you can see aerial acrobats and jugglers, or perhaps a dance show.

27 catering establishments

There are no less than 27 dining options and 22 bars and lounges (including an ice bar!) on board. So there's plenty to choose from! Peter's favourite was the Japanese restaurant where the Filipino chefs entertain guests by singing, dancing and juggling eggs... while cooking!

Is cruising for you?

Cruising is interesting because opinions are often strong, for or received. We went on our first "real" cruise between Barcelona and Rome last September. A fun and different experience! We are happy to cruise again, but would like to try some other destination. Around Greenland perhaps? Even St Petersburg, which this ship goes to, would be interesting to visit.
