Celebrate Christmas on board a cruise with Star Clippers Christmas is unquestionably one of the most joyous times of the year – a time which sees families and friends come together in celebration. Unfortunately, one of the lesser finer elements of the festive period comes in the form of colder and temperatures and shorter days. Star Clippers can offer an ideal and tempting alternative.

The tall ship line will be operating a series of Christmas cruises throughout the winter period, taking passengers to some of the finest destinations in the Caribbean and across Far East Asia. Imagine spending Christmas day sunbathing on a warm white-sand beach with nothing but the sound of the gentle turquoise waters brushing the shore. This week, we take a closer look at the three options available that will enable you to celebrate Christmas in style.
