Launched in 2019, the ship was the first passenger vessel to feature the distinctive inverted Ulstein X-BOW®, engineered to deliver a smoother and more efficient passage in challenging sea conditions.

Accommodation is spread across 77 cabins, while on board facilities include an observation lounge and bar, library, sauna, outdoor hot tubs and generous indoor and outdoor viewing spaces. Throughout the journey, the expedition team shares insights through expert talks and informal discussions, adding context to the places visited and the wildlife encountered along the way.
