The spacious Ultramarine is a purpose-built expedition ship, offering a choice of adventure activities as well as the chance to explore by helicopter.
Maximum passengers: 199
Specifically designed for expedition cruising, Ultramarine has a 1A+/PC6 ice class and is well-equipped for cruising polar waters. There is plenty of outside space for optimum wildlife viewing and two on-board helicopters for aerial exploration! These twin-engine Airbus H145 helicopters are the most fuel-efficient in their class, featuring a small external footprint and reduced noise pollution. Other sustainability features include the innovative Micro Auto Gasification System (MAGS) which converts waste into energy on board, eliminating the environmental impact of waste transportation.
The ship features a range of spacious guest suites, many with a private balcony and all with ocean views. Public areas include a choice of dining rooms, bars, a panorama lounge, dedicated lecture theatre, library and gift shop. Relax in the spa or take in the ocean views from the sauna.
Plus, there’s a great choice of adventure activities are available on board the Ultramarine including kayaking and paddleboarding.
Put the camera down. No words can describe how it feels to be immersed in the intense nature of Antarctica. Take a stroll with a king penguin, watch a baby seal gang rough and tumble at your feet, and whatever you do, stop, take a breath and really feel it. It's wild.
