The Ocean Explorer, the latest addition to our fleet, is a modern, elegant vessel specifically designed for polar exploration. This 138-passenger ship incorporates the latest expedition ship technology, including the innovative ULSTEIN X-BOW®, which provides a comfortable and smooth sailing experience thanks to its inverted bow design. At the bow, you'll find a two-story, light-filled library that adds an airy and welcoming atmosphere to the expedition ship. The spacious cabins are designed with a modern, bespoke Scandinavian aesthetic, and nearly all of them feature verandas. Guests can unwind and enjoy the amenities, including a spacious gym, a sauna with large windows, and two outdoor Jacuzzis. Ocean Explorer offers extensive outdoor viewing areas and multi-level outer decks, perfect for long-view photography and wildlife observation. The vessel is also equipped with a fleet of 15 Zodiacs, allowing guests to quickly and safely embark on off-ship adventures. Alongside its well-appointed public areas, the Ocean Explorer features an industry-leading mix of sustainability systems, including fuel-efficient Rolls Royce engines.
