Fred. Olsen Cruise
Lines’ recently launched ‘Solar Eclipse’ cruise aboard Boudicca (D1504)
has proved so popular that it is now fully booked; due to the enormous interest
in this amazing phenomenon, the cruise line is pleased to announce a second
cruise aboard Black Watch to allow more of its guests this
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
A
total solar eclipse is one of the most awe-inspiring natural spectacles in the
world, and one of the most difficult to view; it occurs when the Moon passes
between the Earth and the Sun, entirely obscuring the Sun and blocking all
direct sunlight, turning daylight into complete darkness.
The
newly launched cruise (W1502) will depart from Southampton on 16th
March 2015 for 14 nights and will be positioned off the coast of the Faroe
Islands on 20th March, when the longest duration of totality – the
best opportunity to view the eclipse – occurs. The cruise operates a similar
itinerary to the Boudicca cruise, visiting Runavik (Faroe Islands),
Leknes (Lofoten islands), Tromsø, Alta, Trondheim and Ǻlesund (all Norway) and
returning to Southampton.
Prices for this
fascinating ex-UK cruise start from £1,799 per person, based on two adults
sharing an inside, twin cabin Grade ‘I’, and include accommodation, all meals
and entertainment on board, and port taxes.
