Description

The Black Watch began navigating in 1972 and has been in the service of several companies. It became part of the Fred. Olsen Cruise Line in 1996, and underwent an important refitting in 2005, that made it more elegant and modern. It offers cruises often departing from Great Britain and visiting the rest of the world, with passenger care and a style that is very “British”. It offers the possibility to try some mini-cruises, even with just one overnight, that often appear on the calendar sailing from English ports.
