Costa Europa is a cruise ship for Costa Cruises. She started life as Home Lines' Homeric in 1986. In 1988 she was sold to Holland America Line where she was lengthened and renamed Westerdam. She joined Costa's fleet in 2002 after being completely refurbished to combine the style of continental Europe with Old World artistry. Works of art are displayed in many of the ship's public areas. Her nine decks are named for characters from Greek myths and legends: Hercules, Auriga, Cassiopea, Orion, Perseus, Andromeda, Pegasus, Sirens and Centaurus.
