Lesbian Cruises 2027: Every Women's Sailing, Dated

There are two kinds of lesbian cruise. Olivia charters the whole ship for lesbians and LGBTQ+ women, and says nonbinary and trans guests have always been welcome. Lesbians Aboard books groups of women onto regular cruises, mostly on Virgin Voyages, and runs its own dinners and meetups. Between them, they have 24 sailings from December 2026 to February 2028. Every date, ship, fare and status below comes from the operators' own websites, checked on October 23, 2026.

The short version for 2027: Olivia is almost entirely on the waitlist, so if you want to sail with women in 2027 and haven't booked, start with Lesbians Aboard or Olivia's Norway and Barcelona-to-Lisbon cruises. Most of VACAYA's 2027 sailings already show sold out.

Every lesbian cruise, December 2026 – February 2028

Olivia: women-only charters

Olivia charters ships for lesbians and LGBTQ+ women and says it has taken more than 360,000 guests on over 400 trips in 35 years. Its 2027 calendar runs from the 2,100-guest XOXO Caribbean cruise on Holland America's Eurodam (February 13–20) to riverboats in Europe and expedition ships in Alaska, the Galápagos and New Zealand. Fares are per person, two to a cabin, plus a $499 per-person fee that Olivia says covers taxes, fees and gratuities ($599 on the New Zealand trip). The minimum age is 21.

On October 23, 2026, these Olivia cruises still had cabins:

• Norwegian Fjords (July 12–19, 2027, Azamara Quest, from Copenhagen): from $3,299.
• Barcelona, Coastal Spain & Lisbon (June 8–16, 2027, Windstar Star Legend): from $3,999.
• Greek Isles with Lesbos (October 2–9, 2027, Azamara Onward): suites only, from $6,399.
• Vol. 55: The Anniversary Cruise (January 29 – February 5, 2028, Eurodam, from Fort Lauderdale): from $1,299, with only a few of the cheapest cabins left.

Everything else in 2027, including the XOXO Caribbean cruise and all four riverboats, was on the waitlist. Read our full Olivia cruise guide for what's included, the programs for first-timers and solo travelers, and Olivia's strict cancellation rules.

Lesbians Aboard: women's groups on Virgin Voyages

Lesbians Aboard is a group for women hosted by Natasha DeJesus and Heather. On its Virgin Voyages sailings you book a regular cabin through their link, and the group adds a private pre-cruise chat, group dinners and meetups, with no fee to join. Its December 2027 Rhine river cruise is on AmaWaterways, booked by contacting the hosts. Virgin's ships are adults only (18+), and Virgin prices per cabin rather than per person, so the fare shows up in Virgin's booking system rather than on the group's page.

Their 2027 sailings include a Valentine's Single Mingle and Sisters at Sea from Miami in February, a Spring Fling from San Juan in April, a Greek Isles and Egypt cruise from Athens in June, an Alaska cruise from Seattle in August, a Halloween cruise in October, and a Christmas markets river cruise on the Rhine in December.

Mixed LGBTQ+ cruises that welcome women

• VACAYA charters ships for the whole LGBTQ+ community. It has a page for lesbian and bisexual women, and The Advocate reported in July 2025 that its sailings have a dedicated lounge for women, trans and nonbinary guests. See our VACAYA cruise guide.
• Atlantis is mostly men: it says women make up 5–10% of its guests, mostly couples, and it hosts women's get-togethers on board.
• Aquafest and TravelingGays describe their groups as gay men and women.
