The Norwegian Prima is the first ship of the extraordinary new class of Norwegian Cruise ships. Since Prima in Italian means first, this luxury ship is the first of her class. Besides new sophisticated modern designed cabins and world-class art, passengers staying in The Haven suites will experience exclusive amenities.

Built in 2022, the mega-ship offers 20 spacious decks and an abundance of enrichment outdoor space for up to 3,250 passengers on each sailing. Some of the most popular outdoor spots include the four swimming pools, bars and lounges. There are plenty of deck chairs, day beds and outdoor activities that will soothe your soul at sea.

The Concourse on Deck 8 is an outdoor oasis for art lovers. Throughout the day and evening the light changes in this area providing dramatic photos. Check out the striking sculptures by Alexander Krivosheiw.
