The AIDAmar is the second-to last ship in Aida Cruises (too) extensive Sphinx-class that started with the AIDAdiva back in 2007 and ended this year with the AIDAstella, with five other ships between them. Not much to say about the AIDAmar that wouldn't have been covered in the technical details above. She was ordered in December 2007, her keel was laid in October 2008 and she was delivered to her owners in May 2012.
The photographs below show the AIDAmar departing Helsinki West Harbour in the afternoon of 26 June 2013, photographed from Sisä-Hattu. Click on the images to see them in larger size.

| It's nice to look at these photos today, at the opposite end of the year then it's dark, gloomy and the sun is barely seen. |

| The (un?)expected return of The Photogenic Tree. |

| Not a big fan of the Sphinx class in terms of exterior, though I hear the interiors are very nice. |

| Artsy foreground rocks. |
