Detailed answer
Hebridean Sky is a small expedition-style ship owned by Noble Caledonia since 2014. It was built by Nuovi Cantieri Apuania at Carrara in Italy, completed in December 1991 for Renaissance Cruises as Renaissance VII, and has since sailed under several names including Corinthian II and Sea Explorer. Noble Caledonia gives it 118 passengers, 75 crew, a length of 90.60 metres and a gross tonnage of 4,200. All 59 cabins are suites, 14 of them with balconies. Dining is open seating, with wine, beer and soft drinks included at lunch and dinner, and the ship has Starlink internet in public areas and suites. It is a sister of Island Sky and was refitted in April 2016. The Gibraltar port listing expects about 114 passengers, mainly American; Noble Caledonia sells this voyage with flights from London.
How busy will town be?
The upcoming visits listed on this page show the passengers expected on each call and any other ships in port the same day. Town is busiest when several ships are in at once or a large ship arrives at a weekend. A ship carrying a few hundred passengers makes little difference on its own.
Can you sail on it from nearby?
The call on Wednesday 15 September 2027 is day nine of the ten-night Iberian Coastal Odyssey, which leaves Bilbao on Tuesday 7 September 2027 and calls at Gijon, La Coruna, Vigo, Oporto, Setubal for Lisbon and Seville before Gibraltar, then Cartagena, ending at Valencia on Friday 17 September 2027. A year later, the 12-night Iberia and Islands of the Mediterranean voyage leaves Oporto on Saturday 9 September 2028 and calls at Cadiz, Seville, Gibraltar and Malaga on its way to Civitavecchia for Rome. Noble Caledonia sells both as packages including flights from London.
