WIND SURF photoWindstar Cruises focuses on the upscale cruise market with three unique "motor-sail-yachts": the 308-passenger Wind Surf (originally the Club Med I) and the more intimate Wind Star and Wind Spirit, which carry 148 guests each. Each vessel combines the atmosphere of a large sailing yacht with the comforts of a luxury cruise ship.

WIND SURF photoIn 2008, Windstar's European cruise calendar runs from late March through mid-November, with transatlantic crossings at the beginning and end of the season. All European cruises are in the Mediterranean, Adriatic, and Aegean, and itineraries often mix popular ports such as Barcelona and Lisbon with off-the-beaten-path destinations that aren't accessible by larger cruise ships.
