Designed for discerning adventurers, this 138-passenger vessel blends luxury and innovation, offering an unmatched experience in remote destinations that only a handful of people will ever venture to. Spacious, bespoke Scandinavian-inspired cabins, most with private verandas, offer refined comfort. Choose from eight types of luxurious accommodations, each with a serene ambience and no sound disturbance from neighbours.
Expansive outdoor viewing areas and multi-height decks provide the perfect vantage points for photography and wildlife spotting. The Main Dining Room seats 144 guests and features expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto the spectacular polar wilderness. For more laidback dining, pop into the Observation Bistro for a light bite with panoramic views. And after a day of hardy exploration, unwind in the Tundra Spa & Sauna, relax al fresco in one of the Jacuzzis, or put in a session in the well-equipped gym.
For the more adventurous traveller, take your seat in one of 15 durable and high-powered Zodiacs and go for ocean-level cruises among icebergs, whales and seabirds. During these expeditions, visit remote and isolated sites that are only accessible by these safe and inflatable vessels. Whether you’re seeking new frontiers or simply a discreet, luxurious escape, Ocean Explorer offers an unforgettable experience in the world’s most remote and pristine environment.
