“ There ’ s nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline , no matter how many times it ’ s sent away .”
— Sarah Kay , founder and co-director of Project V . O . I . C . E .
There is something undeniably romantic about the sea . It has a way of captivating us , pulling us in and revealing a deep sense of desire . The desire to love and be loved , the desire to travel , the desire to be bigger than ourselves . In many ways , the ocean is a lot like love , majestic and beautiful yet simultaneously rough and mysterious .
And what better way to tap into this connection than to take our love to the high seas ? Literally . River cruises and cruise expeditions have long held a place in the hearts of romantics with their rich cultural experiences on shore by day and the sound of softly crashing waves and a sky full of stars by night ; nothing else compares .
Join us as we explore four opportunities around the world to experience romance on the water .
