What’s it like onboard?
Despite the small size, you’ll find surprisingly spacious public areas, elegantly designed cabins, panoramic lounges, and a warm, Nordic-inspired aesthetic that emphasises natural light, clean lines, and eco-friendly design.
Guests also enjoy access to a wellness centre, polar plunge opportunities, and a cosy observation lounge perfect for whale-watching or sipping a glass of wine after a day in the zodiacs.
