Why we like the Sylvia Earle

  • The first thing you can’t help notice is her X-bow specifically designed with passengers' comfort in mind and for slicing through ice
  • One of the smaller Antarctica ships with under 130 people means everyone can disembark together
  • Most cabins have balconies and all are generously proportioned with large windows, so you never miss the action outside
  • An impressive range of optional add-on activities are available, from kayaking and camping to polar snorkelling!
  • A stunning glass atrium at the bow of the ship for incredible views of wildlife and scenery, from both port and starboard sides.
  • Swimming pool and jacuzzi

Following in the footsteps of her sister ship the Greg Mortimer, the Sylvia Earle is as remarkable to look at and sail aboard as the technology and design which went into her build.
