Description

The SS Horizon Pearl is a stunningly preserved 30-meter classic cruise yacht, launched in 1960 in the prestigious shipyards of Viareggio, Italy. She perfectly captures the golden age of elegant Mediterranean and Atlantic cruising with her timeless lines and sophisticated charm.
With a length of 30 meters, a beam of 6.8 meters, and a draught of 2.4 meters, this graceful vessel features a strong steel hull and elegant teak superstructure. Her classic cruiser stern and gently flared bows give her a distinctive, eye-catching silhouette that continues to impress in every anchorage. Powered by twin original MAN diesel engines, she cruises comfortably at 12 knots (max 15 knots) with excellent range and efficiency.
Currently based in Dakhla (Morocco), the Horizon Pearl offers an extraordinary combination of vintage luxury and adventurous spirit. From the legendary lagoon of Dakhla — one of the world’s premier kitesurfing and watersports destinations — she is perfectly positioned for unforgettable expeditions along the Moroccan coast, to the Canary Islands, or across the Atlantic routes.
Aboard the Horizon Pearl, guests step into pure 1960s maritime elegance. The expansive aft teak deck is ideal for al fresco dining or sunset cocktails, comfortably accommodating up to 12 guests. The raised wheelhouse retains its original mahogany helm and vintage instruments, offering panoramic views while navigating the turquoise waters of the Dakhla lagoon or the open ocean.
The interior showcases warm mahogany woodwork, original Italian leather upholstery, and large windows that fill the salon with natural light. A mirrored cocktail bar, formal dining for 10, and beautifully preserved details create an atmosphere of refined nostalgia. Below deck are four elegant guest cabins (two doubles, two twins), all with en-suite bathrooms featuring classic brass and ceramic details. The master suite offers a king bed and private lounge area.
Fully equipped with a modernized galley, sun deck with loungers, and a swim platform, the Horizon Pearl is maintained to the highest standards by a dedicated crew of four. She blends authentic 1960s character with contemporary comfort and reliability.
Whether exploring the dramatic coastline near Dakhla, cruising the trade winds toward the Caribbean, or hosting private charters in the Atlantic, the SS Horizon Pearl delivers the romance and sophistication of classic yachting in one of the most spectacular watersports regions in the world.
A rare piece of floating history, ready for new adventures from her home base in Dakhla.
