Chasing the Eclipse: Iceland & Beyond – 15-Night Cruise Adventure
Portsmouth International Port, George Byng Way, Portsmouth, GBTHIS SPECIALTY VOYAGE WILL SELL OUT FAST!!
I'm thrilled to invite you to join me on an unforgettable journey aboard Virgin Voyages’ Valiant Lady for the Eclipse in the Land of Fire and Ice Cruise — a 15-night, adults-only sailing round-trip from Portsmouth, UK, timed to witness the total solar eclipse on August 12, 2026, from the North Atlantic.
Picture this: We'll embark on an epic voyage through some of the most stunning destinations in the British Isles and Iceland. From sipping a pint in a cozy Dublin pub to marveling at Iceland’s otherworldly fjords, every port offers its own unique story and charm. We'll experience Irish culture, Scottish history, and Icelandic magic — all capped off by a rare celestial event at sea.
But that’s not all! This sailing is part of Virgin’s Marvelous Voyages series, meaning we’ll enjoy eclipse-themed onboard events, including live astronomy talks, moonlight yoga, stargazing socials, and even cosmic cocktails. Whether you’re here for the science or the scenery, this voyage will leave you awestruck.
Virgin Voyages’ Valiant Lady is known for her luxurious accommodations, world-class restaurants, high-energy entertainment, and gorgeous spa and wellness options — all included. No kids, no buffets, no stress — just grown-up adventure, freedom, and fun.
