Seabourn achieved a first with its two purpose-built expedition ships meeting up in Antarctica for the first time.
Seabourn Pursuit and Seabourn Venture sailed together at the entrance to Neko Harbor, to celebrate Seabourn Pursuit‘s maiden season in Antarctica.
“We could not think of a better way to commemorate our first trip to Antarctica than meeting up with our sister ship, Seabourn Venture,” said Stig Betten, captain of Seabourn Pursuit.
Seabourn Pursuit just embarked on its maiden season of Antarctica cruises, while Seabourn Venture is beginning its second season.
Both ships will operate 11- to 13-day voyages to Antarctica, as well as 21-day voyages to South Georgia, Falkland Islands, and Antarctica.
These Antarctica cruises will offer included Zodiac outings and hikes across untouched landscapes.
Optional kayaking and submarine excursions will also be available.
Launched in 2022 and 2023, respectively, Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit offer expedition activities led by a 24-person expedition team of scientists, scholars and naturalists.
The ships are designed to PC6 Polar Class standards with almost 30,000 square feet of deck space and outdoor guest areas with nearly 270-degree views.
The ships are equipped with Wi-Fi connectivity with SpaceX’s Starlink.
