Ocean Explorer

Ocean Explorer, the newest addition to our fleet, is modern, elegant and purpose-built for polar exploration. The 138-passenger vessel has been designed with the latest in expedition ship technology. One of the ship’s key features is the ULSTEIN X-BOW®, a marine engineering innovation that ensures a comfortable and smooth sailing experience thanks to the inverted bow.

Cabins & Accommodation

Ocean Explorer’s 138 guests are accommodated in 70 cabins, two of which are solo suites. Guests have a choice of 12 types of spacious and luxurious cabins that ensure a quiet ambience with no sound disturbance from adjoining cabins.

Entertainment

Each interior element was carefully hand-picked by designers for you to enjoy, from the dramatic two-story forward lounge, the floor-to-ceiling glass refuge in the library, to the grand fixtures and luxe furnishings throughout the ship. Observation areas on Decks 7 and 8 allow for higher, longer-view landscape photography while contending with less sea spray.

Activities

Every vessel in our fleet becomes an expedition base camp. Unpack once. Visit an exciting range of places, because the ship moves from place to place. The ships are equipped with inflatable landing crafts known as Zodiacs. They are used for shore landings and ocean-level cruising.

Food & Drink

Well Being

A dry sauna and two outdoor Jacuzzis for you to rejuvenate after a day of off-ship adventures.
