EXTRAORDINARY EXPEDITIONS SEPTEMBER 2024–MARCH 2026 14 Custom-Built Submarines Piloted by experienced and licensed Expedition Team submariners, two six-person submarines offer guests breath-taking views of everything from the surreal subsea realms beneath Antarctic waters, plunging underwater cliffs in fjords, and reef walls teeming with life in clear, tropical seas. These rare experiences are available for an additional charge in select destinations. EQUIPPED FOR EXPLORATION the sub.Zodiacs® These amazing watercrafts provide our means for landing on trackless beaches, desert isles and far-flung icy shores where no docks or other facilities exist. They carry guests to towering fjords, among breaching whales and stately icebergs, into jungledraped channels and untouched coral reefs. Our fleet of 24 Zodiacs can all gather beside the water-level shell doors on either side of the ships, enabling call guests to enjoy a complimentary Zodiac tour at once. Snorkelling An array of masks, snorkels and fins assures everyone a good fit. Expedition Team members can help beginners get started and show you the best snorkelling spots during warm weather voyages. Double Sea kayaks These silent craft allow guests to approach wildlife at eye level, to enjoy the snaps of brash ice in a glacier’s meltwater, to navigate tangled mangrove thickets teeming with life and slide over multi-colored tropical coral gardens. Led by an expert member of our Expedition Team, these excursions offer an appealing option available for an additional charge. ● Luxuriously furnished interiors with dual air conditioning systems and Bluetooth stereo sound ● Two transparent spheres with seating for three guests each ● Seating platforms swivel 280 degrees for easy viewing on all sides ● Capable of multiple dives a day to depths of up to 1,000 feet at three knots ● Powerful exterior lights reveal a fascinating underwater world ● HD videocam systems record inside and outside action for later projection ● A six-function remote arm can be used to manipulate or retrieve objects outside
