Why we like the Sylvia Earle
- Specifically designed with passengers' comfort in mind and for slicing through ice, you can’t help notice her elegant X-bow
- A small vessel with an average capacity of only 132 people, meaning everyone can disembark together
- A stunning glass atrium at the bow of the ship for incredible views of wildlife and scenery, from both port and starboard sides.
- Optional add-on activities are available, from kayaking and camping to polar snorkelling
- You'll never miss the action outside - most cabins have balconies and all are generously proportioned with large windows
- Swimming pool and jacuzzi

Alex says
The Sylvia Earle is sister ship to the Greg Mortimer, and follows in the same impressive footsteps; she is as remarkable to look at and sail aboard as the design and technology which went into her build.
