The Coastal fleet offers different types of vessels - Millennium
, Contemporary, Mid-Generation and Traditional - all
"working" ships that meet cruise standards. Works by
recognized artists have helped the ships gain renown as floating
galleries. And if you're looking for state-of-the-art quality
and elegance, the brand-new Millennium class ships should be a
perfect fit for you. With beautifully decorated and furnished
public areas and cabins; with numerous suites, some with a
balcony and Jacuzzi, these additions to the NCV fleet appeal to
even the most seasoned travelers! Four-season cruising - daily

the Midnight Sun or the Northern Lights, spring blossoms or fall
foliage.
