This wellness-focused dining venue debuted on Oceania Cruises Vista, serving smoothies, energy bowls, avocado toast, globally inspired salads, and more, complemented by non-alcoholic wine and mocktails. At breakfast, the smoothies, cold-pressed juices and energy bowls offer healthy options, while at lunch the avocado toast selections and globally inspired salads and wraps offer a wellness treat. Heartier options include an Impossible™ burger, yellowfin tuna tacos and a crunchy chicken sandwich among several others. Aquamar Kitchen will be added as part of Oceania Marina refurbishment, and will be open for breakfast and lunch and does not require reservations, and as with all other onboard restaurants, is complimentary for guests
