Margaritaville Islander Tour
Margaritaville at Sea Islander is a Spirit-class cruise ship. Previously sailing for Costa Cruises as Costa Atlantica, she was built in 2000 by the Kvaerner Masa-Yards Helsinki New Shipyard in Helsinki and delivered in 2000. She was sold to Margaritaville at Sea and began service in June 2024. The ship would receive a total makeover before entering service. All 1,100 staterooms would be refurbished, as well as the ship's atrium, lido deck and restaurants. Familiar features that debuted on Margaritaville at Sea Paradise would also be featured. Renamed Margaritaville at Sea Islander, the ship began a four-month refit in January 2024 at the Harland & Wolff shipyard, Belfast. The ship's godmother is Savannah Buffett, daughter of Margaritaville founder Jimmy Buffett.
