Seabourn has named its first ultra-luxury, purpose-built expedition ship, Seabourn Venture.

The ship is scheduled to launch in June 2021, with a second yet-to-be-named sister ship slated to launch in May 2022. Both ships will be designed and built for diverse environments to PC6 Polar Class standards and will include a plethora of modern hardware and technology that will extend their global deployment and capabilities.

The new ships, which are being built by T. Mariotti, will have a brand new, innovative design created specifically for the ultra-luxury expedition traveller and will include many features that have made Seabourn ships so successful.

A new and exciting offering will be two custom-built submarines carried onboard, providing an unforgettable view of the world beneath the ocean’s surface. The ships will also be designed to carry a complement of kayaks and 24 Zodiacs that can accommodate all onboard guests at once, allowing for a truly immersive experience. Each ship will feature 132 luxurious oceanfront verandah suites.

The first ship is currently planned to sail in the Arctic in late summer 2021, with a full summer season in Antarctica to follow. Specific details about itineraries and booking availability will be released shortly.
