Must read

Windstar Cruises is introducing a new 14-night Quebec & Newfoundland Adventure for its 2026 Canada & New England cruise season, featuring first-time ports and unique exploration opportunities.

The new itinerary will sail roundtrip from Montreal on the 312-guest Star Pride, offering an intensive exploration of Newfoundland and Labrador. Notable additions include two new ports: St. Pierre & Miquelon and Trois-Rivieres. The cruise will feature late-night stops allowing for hiking in Batiscan Park and experiencing local culinary tours.

The sailing will revisit two ports not included since 2018 – Red Bay in Labrador and St. John’s, Newfoundland – as well with an overnight stay in the latter. Quebec City will also offer an additional late night for exploring UNESCO sites and experiencing the city’s French heritage.

Windstar’s Southeast Canadian Explorations route will return, sailing between Montreal and Boston. Included will be an overnight in Quebec City, a new lobster fishing tour option in Cap aux Meules and a reprise of Rockland, Maine.

The company will also continue its 14-night Greenland: North Atlantic Odyssey, featuring scenic sailing through Prince Christian Sound and Tasermiut Fjord, with opportunities to explore Inuit culture in remote villages.

“Our small ships have an advantage in Canada and New England because we can visit many smaller towns for a more relaxed, intimate style of exploration,” said Windstar president Christopher Prelog. “We’re very happy we can continue accessing many of these tiny ports along with expanding upon what our guests can experience.”

An Early Booking Offer is available for 2026 sailings, which must be booked by April 30, 2025, including complimentary upgrades to all-inclusive fares and onboard credit.
