From a sunset in the Med and the fjords of Norway to the glaciers of Alaska and lush landscapes of the South Pacific, the world is full of beautiful scenery.
As Holland America Line ships glide through the waters surrounded by stunning views, hundreds of guests are typically found on deck snapping away, capturing the moment on film to be preserved forever.
Many scenic regions are best visited by cruise ship, where you can get up close to an area otherwise unreachable by conventional method of transport. We asked Holland America Line Facebook fans to send in their favorite scenic snapshot from their cruise, and we received several beauties. Here’s a selection of the diverse and eye-catching photos sent in by HAL fans.

The unknown locale of Tim H. sure looks like the Pitons on St. Lucia. It was that very sight at sunset that brought me back to my second Caribbean cruise on HAL
