There are other images of the 30227 Gross Ton Cruise ship Nautica published in this sub gallery that were captured in 2018 when she was visiting the Port of Southampton but this one, which was the first occasion when I saw her was captured at the much earlier date of September 2006. This image shows her berthed in the Port of Yalta in the Black Sea. She was built in France in 2000, originally for a different Cruise Company, is Registered in the Marshall Islands and can accommodate 824 passengers and 366 crew. She is owned and operated by Oceania Cruises.
