A Crew That Delivers Excellence

The CORAL OCEAN crew’s success is rooted in their exceptional diversity of skills.

The CORAL OCEAN crew does this and more, offering personalised service that delights every guest onboard and are especially noted for their themed party nights, whether its neon, casino or 70’s, and their dedication to keeping the kids entertained with Pirate treasure hunts, movie nights in their own den or pizza and cookie making classes. And If you are feeling competitive why not challenge the crew to the CORAL OCEAN Olympics using all the water toys they have to offer.

From the very first interaction, the crew ensures that every guest’s needs are understood and met. Whether it's planning an exciting excursion or arranging a themed evening to remember, the team knows how to deliver unforgettable experiences. From fine dining to beach side BBQ’s the yacht’s culinary offerings are particularly lauded, with guests often praising the creative flair and quality of the dishes prepared by the chefs.

A Year of Success and Innovation

This year, the CORAL OCEAN crew has worked tirelessly in rotation across several renowned cruising grounds, including the Mediterranean, the Red Sea, and the Caribbean. The yacht’s crew members have been praised not only for their ability to adapt to various environments but also for their commitment to innovation. The team continuously seeks out fresh ideas to entertain guests and ensure that every trip is one-of-a-kind.
