EXPERIENCE THE INCREDIBLE WILDLIFE, PRISTINE MOUNTAIN SCENERY
Modern, eco-sensitive and purpose-built to tackle polar waters, the Ocean Victory joins Albatros Expeditions’ impressive fleet of small expedition ships.
The strong, ice-classed expedition vessel provides real comfort in rough weather and high waves, whilst also being able to get close to Antarctica’s dramatic coastlines. It’s one of the most modern small ships in its class – a brand-new generation of low-energy vessels with excellent environmental credentials. Its guest cabins are designed with a touch of sophistication, and many have private balconies for admiring the ocean views. Other standout features include several restaurants, an inviting Nordic Bar, a dedicated wellness area and an open dining deck – all designed for absolute comfort as you delve into the wonders of Antarctica.
Any voyage aboard the Ocean Victory is a chance to experience the incredible wildlife, pristine mountain scenery and sculptural icebergs of the Great White Continent. Zodiac cruises and shore landings form a big part of each itinerary, so you can expect to set foot on the Antarctic continent several times, as well as its surrounding sub-Antarctic islands. Active travellers can enjoy kayaking, hiking and camping excursions, alongside expert-led talks in the Shackleton lecture lounge which provide an insightful look into the region.
