IJmuiden is the Netherlands' North Sea gateway to Amsterdam, where the world's largest sea lock marks the entrance to the North Sea Canal. Visitors should taste smoked fish and kibbeling at the harbour, explore the wild dune landscapes of South Kennemerland National Park, and marvel at centuries of Dutch maritime engineering. Late spring through early autumn offers the best weather for coastal exploration.

Newcastle, Australia, Australia is a distinctive port city where deep cultural heritage meets authentic local atmosphere, featured on itineraries by Viking. Must-do experiences include walking the historic center to experience the layered architectural heritage, and seeking out the regional culinary traditions at a locally favored establishment away from the port area. The optimal time to visit is October through April, when warm weather and extended daylight create ideal conditions.

Nassau wears its layered past lightly — pirates once commanded these shores, and the elegant colonial facades along Bay Street still whisper of British rule — but today the Bahamian capital is above all a place of cerulean water and indolent pleasure. The Queen's Staircase, 65 steps hand-carved from solid limestone by enslaved labourers in the late 18th century, and the clifftop ruins of Fort Fincastle reward those who venture beyond the waterfront boutiques. Paradise Island's Harbour island, accessible by water taxi, delivers some of the Atlantic's most celebrated pink-sand beaches. Nassau is year-round in climate; November through April brings the most reliably perfect weather.

Invergordon is a charming port town in the Scottish Highlands, known for its rich history and scenic beauty. Must-do experiences include exploring the historic Battlefield of Culloden and savoring traditional dishes like haggis and cranachan. The best season to visit is during the summer months when local festivals and events bring the vibrant culture to life.

Kirkwall, the Norse-founded capital of Scotland's Orkney Islands, is a sandstone harbour town framed by UNESCO-listed Neolithic monuments, a twelfth-century cathedral, and some of Britain's finest coastal landscapes. Visitors should not miss the five-thousand-year-old village of Skara Brae and a tasting of North Ronaldsay seaweed-fed lamb paired with Highland Park whisky. The prime cruising season runs from May through August, when Orkney enjoys up to nineteen hours of daylight and the wild coastal light is at its most luminous.

Ullapool is a whitewashed fishing village on Loch Broom in the Scottish Highlands, gateway to some of Europe's wildest mountain scenery and the Summer Isles archipelago. Must-do experiences include tasting fresh langoustines at the Seafood Shack, exploring the Corrieshalloch Gorge, and cruising to the Summer Isles for seals and eagles. May through September is ideal, with June's longest days and July's whale-watching opportunities.
Stroll through this picturesque fishing town and admire the views from the headland. Take a drive around this stunning, craggy island of majestic waterfalls, beautiful fjords, farms, villages, enigmatic sea stacks and panoramic views of the neighboring islands. Or visit an ancient Viking settlement in a valley of lakes.

Seyðisfjörður is a remote artist colony and historic port tucked into a dramatic fjord on Iceland's eastern coast, renowned for its nineteenth-century painted timber houses, the iconic Blue Church, and a thriving creative scene anchored by the annual LungA festival. Visitors should not miss the fjord approach by sea and a day trip to Dettifoss, Europe's most powerful waterfall. The prime visiting season is June through August, when the midnight sun bathes the fjord in golden light and cruise lines including Viking, Celebrity, and Holland America call at this intimate harbour.

Húsavík, Europe's whale-watching capital on northern Iceland's Skjálfandi Bay, offers over ninety-five percent sighting rates of humpbacks, blue whales, and minke whales in nutrient-rich Arctic waters. A world-class whale museum and proximity to Dettifoss waterfall, Ásbyrgi canyon, and Mývatn's geothermal wonders extend the experience. HX Expeditions, Lindblad Expeditions, and Seabourn bring expedition travelers to this colorful fishing town where Arctic cuisine and cetacean encounters converge with quiet Icelandic authority.

Ísafjörður is the cultural and historical capital of Iceland's remote Westfjords, a dramatic fjord-side settlement where centuries of fishing heritage meet stark Arctic grandeur. Visitors should not miss the communal seafood feast at Tjöruhúsið restaurant and a journey to the surreal red sands of Rauðasandur beach near Patreksfjörður. The optimal visiting window is June through August, when nearly perpetual daylight illuminates the encircling mountains and the town's vibrant cultural calendar reaches its peak.

Reykjavik, the world's northernmost capital, distils the entire improbable beauty of Iceland into one compact, creatively charged city. The soaring basalt columns of Hallgrímskirkja dominate a skyline of primary-coloured rooftops, while the Harpa Concert Hall shimmers beside the harbour like a captured aurora. Day trips from the city unlock the Golden Circle's geysers and Geysir hot spring, the black sand beaches of Vík, and the ethereal glacier lagoon at Jökulsárlón. Geothermal pools — from the legendary Blue Lagoon to intimate neighbourhood hot pots — offer warmth year-round. June and July bring the bewitching midnight sun.
