Dining
Step into the spectacular dining room and gaze up at the curved wrought-iron balconies sweeping towards a stunning central skylight. Maritime art hangs from wood-panelled walls and friendly staff ensure great service is their top priority for an elegant dinner on the world’s largest sailing ship.
At Tradewind Voyages, we will offer outstanding food and service. On-board dining offers something for all tastes and preferences, including healthy eating, sustainability and wellbeing. Alongside classic dishes, we will always seek to use local fresh produce to create menus relevant to the region.








Restaurant
Breakfast, lunch and daytime offerings can be traditional or light and fresh; there will always be dishes with a local flavour. Our buffet selections are designed to ensure that the most stringent health and safety standards are met.
One of the highlights of the day will be a full-service dinner served over two levels in our spectacular main dining room. A selection of wines and beers are complimentary during meal hours in the main dining room for lunch and dinner.

Room Service
We have a more relaxed side, too. There’s 24-hour complimentary room service*, so you can have a lazy breakfast in bed. If your cabin has a balcony, you can enjoy lunch or dinner – and a front-row view of the ocean – in private. If the sea breeze and sails are calling, head to the open-air Horizon Bar for lunch in the sunshine; with the chance to sneak a treat from our late afternoon ‘Deck Delights’ trolley service.
