Windstar Knows the Way to Travel
180 Degrees From Ordinary
Seize Your Someday
Delicious dining has always been a pillar of the Windstar experience, and as the Official Cruise Line of the James Beard Foundation – a renowned organization that recognizes and celebrates the chefs, writers and restaurateurs who advance America's culinary arts – Windstar serves dishes created not just by one celebrity chef, but by a list of talented gourmets. Through this partnership, nearly three dozen chefs have sailed with Windstar on culinary-themed cruises, creating extraordinary dishes for the nightly menus and sharing their expert knowledge with onboard culinary demos.
Windstar connects guests to authentic culinary experiences around the world, from Portofino to St. Kitts, Taipei and beyond. No matter where a Windstar cruise takes you, you can expect fresh, local ingredients – often selected by your ship’s chef on a trip to the local market – and an enticing variety of flavorful shore excursions.



Windstar ensures the highest standards of environmental stewardship, exceeds international regulatory standards and pledges to work with local communities to protect their ecosystems.

note

"The most spectacular feature about Windstar is its incredible crew, officers, directors and staff. It is so impressive that everyone, without exception, was so genuinely friendly, personable, and knew each guest’s name and preferences from the start. It is this degree of intimate care and interest that was our big takeaway from experiencing our voyage, and it is what we will now share with our discriminating friends. These unique attributes are the hallmark of Windstar Cruises, and is what earnestly justifies the tag line, ‘180 degrees from ordinary.’" – Windstar guest
