Building on last season when 8,062 sea lift sightings were recorded by Orca on the line’s sailings, next year’s season will see ocean conservationists join Ambience for 11 itineraries and Ambition for 10. 

The programme includes the Iberian Multigenerational Adventure sailing, Gems of Spain and Portugal voyage, the Classical Mediterranean cruise and the Land of the Northern Lights sailing. 

Each dedicated ORCA sailing will feature an interactive programme offering guests the opportunity to learn more about the marine environment.

The line will host lectures and Q&As in partnership with ORCA on board its two ships. The partnership will enter its fourth year next year.

Ambassador has been working with ORCA on a joint anti-whaling campaign to tackle commercial whaling and unnecessary dolphin hunts. 

Chief executive Christian Verhounig hailed the line’s partnership with ORCA as “incredibly rewarding”. “It has allowed us to not only support vital research but also to raise awareness among our guests and crew about the importance of protecting marine life,” added Verhounig. 

“I look forward to seeing our collaboration grow as we embark on a fourth year in our joint mission to preserve our oceans.”
