Greenland's east coast is home to some of the world's largest fjord systems, like Scoresby Sund. Expeditions often include sailing among towering icebergs, visiting remote Inuit communities, and spotting wildlife such as musk oxen, Arctic hares, and whales. Itineraries may start or end in Iceland, with some including flights to reach more remote areas. Northern Lights are often visible in late summer and early autumn, adding a magical touch. Expect a mix of Zodiac cruises, landings, and cultural encounters in one of Earth’s most untouched regions.

the Seaventure
Seaventure features a 1-A Super ice class rating — the highest ice class awarded to passenger vessels. This means that we will be able to explore coves, bays, and channels that would previously have been forbidden to us.
The ship also offers a host of new activities. There’s a sauna, a fitness center, and a custom-built citizen science lab. There is more storage space, which is important because it means we can carry more equipment, so that more of our guests can participate in activities like kayaking, snowshoeing, and camping.
The common areas are larger and beautifully appointed, and the ship has two
kitchens, one on the Lido deck for al fresco dining when weather permits.
