Let the adventure be-gin

We’ve collaborated with award-winning Salcombe Distilling Co. to create a smooth, one-of-a-kind gin available on board our ships. And with a name that means ‘star of the sea’, is there a more fitting choice for the gin that was first produced in the world’s first-ever distillery at sea, on board Iona?

Meet Marabelle Gin, the star of the sea

Raise a glass to Marabelle Gin, a sea-inspired blend created exclusively for P&O Cruises by Salcombe Distilling Co. This exciting partnership marries British maritime heritage and a love of ocean adventures in a beautifully crafted gin. From the name and the design of the bottle to the ingredients, every detail has been carefully thought through.

The first distillery at sea

Marabelle Gin is distilled by a gin specialist in Iona's very own gin still, Columba - the world's first distillery at sea. As well as being served in beautifully crafted cocktails, Marabelle Gin will also be bottled and labelled to be sold on board. If you are holidaying on Iona and spot a gold seal on your bottle, you'll know this was handcrafted in Columba.

A beautifully balanced recipe

And don’t forget: bottles of Marabelle Gin can be purchased on board all of our ships - a perfect gift to take home. Bottles of Marabelle with our blue seals were distilled by Salcombe Distilling Co. at its beautiful waterside still in Devon, ready to share and serve. These are also available to purchase direct from their website. Cheers!

Headliners Theatre is perfect for a fun-filled night out on board. Classic yet contemporary, it offers a sleek and sophisticated theatre experience. Plush, comfortable seating and the latest LED technology deliver the ‘wow’ factor, while a two-deck-high auditorium on decks 6 and 7 ensures everyone has the best view in the house.
