Azamara Pursuit

  

Azamara Pursuit is a boutique-sized cruise ship operated by Azamara Cruises. Built in 2001, it was originally named R Eight and later sailed under names including Minerva II, Royal Princess, and Adonia. Acquired by Azamara in 2017, it entered their fleet in March 2018 following an extensive refit.

The ship has a gross tonnage of approximately 30,277, spans around 180 meters in length, and accommodates roughly 700 passengers across 352 staterooms, supported by a crew of around 400. It features about 11 decks, with six dedicated to accommodations and approximately 70% of cabins offering private balconies.

Onboard amenities include multiple restaurants and lounges, a cabaret-style performance venue, a spa and fitness center, swimming pools, and enrichment-focused public spaces. Cabin categories range from interior and ocean-view to suites with balconies and butler service. The ship emphasizes personalized service and a relaxed, intimate atmosphere.

Azamara Pursuit focuses on immersive itineraries, calling at smaller, less-traveled ports through its Destination Immersion Program and offering longer stays and late-night visits. It operates year-round under the Maltese flag, sailing to regions including the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Americas.
