12 nights · 7. September - 19. September 2026 · Kopenhagen → Southampton
Twelve nights from the Baltic across to the British Isles and along the Irish and English coasts down to Southampton. From Copenhagen Silver Dawn calls at Skagen on Denmark's northern tip before reaching the remote Shetland and Orkney Islands and continuing down the western side of Britain. Liverpool, Belfast and Holyhead open the maritime heritage of the Irish Sea, while Cobh as the gateway to Cork, Falmouth in Cornwall and Saint Helier on Jersey complete the southern arc.

Nyhavn - the colourful harbour row - Christiansborg Palace, and the kitchen that brought New Nordic Cuisine to the world: Copenhagen is one of the most liveable cities anywhere. Kronborg, the model for Shakespeare's Hamlet residence, lies one hour away.
Skagen lies at the northern tip of Jutland, where the North Sea and the Baltic visibly meet. The fishing and artists' town with its yellow houses became world-famous in the 19th century thanks to the Skagen Painters.
Lerwick is the main town of the Shetland Islands in northern Scotland and sits on a sheltered natural harbour. Stone houses, Fort Charlotte and the nearby Viking-inspired Up Helly Aa fire festival shape the town.
Main town of Scotland's Orkney Islands, north of the British mainland. At its centre stands the red 12th-century St Magnus Cathedral, one of the northernmost in Britain, with the Neolithic stone circles of Brodgar nearby.
Port city at the mouth of the Mersey on the north-west English Irish Sea coast. Famed as the home of the Beatles, with the UNESCO-listed Pier Head, the Albert Dock and one of the world's most important European emigration port histories.
Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland and birthplace of the Titanic. The Titanic Belfast Museum at the original dry dock, the political mural heritage of the Troubles and the literary tradition (C.S. Lewis, Seamus Heaney) make Belfast multi-layered.
On the Welsh island of Anglesey in the north-west lies Holyhead as the main ferry port between Britain and Ireland. Behind the harbour rises the 220-metre Holyhead Mountain with an impressive Iron Age hill fort, and the South Stack Lighthouse on an offshore cliff is famed for its seabird colonies with puffins.
Cobh sits on one of the largest natural harbours in the world on the southern coast of Ireland in County Cork. In 1912 the port was the final port of call of the Titanic before her Atlantic crossing, and between 1848 and 1950 around 2.5 million Irish people emigrated overseas from here.
In south-west England's Cornwall, Falmouth opens onto one of the world's largest natural harbours. The National Maritime Museum Cornwall and the mighty Tudor-era Pendennis Castle define this maritime port town, a starting point for transatlantic crossings for centuries.
Southampton is England's largest cruise port, from which the Titanic set out on her maiden voyage in 1912. The SeaCity Museum commemorates this; the Old Town with remains of the city wall and nearby Stonehenge are classic day trips.
