Why we like this ship
- With a high ice class rating of 1A Super this ship is perfectly suited to safely exploring challenging polar waters
- A small ship experience whilst offering generously sized social areas both indoors and out
- The wraparound deck on Deck 6 is ideal for wildlife viewing and photography
- Active fin stabilisers increase your comfort in open water
- An impressive expedition guide to-guest ratio of 1:7
- A significant refurbishment in 2023 refreshed the interior decor with contemporary calm, neutral tones
- A wide choice of comfortable cabins and suites to suit a range of budgets and requirements

We think it's worth noting...
- The Juliet balconies of the Balcony Staterooms and Discovery Suites are just big enough to step out onto for photography, but not large enough to fit outdoor seating
