Launching in 2023, the brand new and exciting MV Ocean Albatros will have more than a 50% lower carbon footprint than traditional expedition vessels.

By implementing the Green Initiative Programme, this ship is one of the most comfortable, sustainable and environmentally friendly available. This sleek looking ship is rated the highest Polar code 6 and Ice class 1A due to her sturdy construction and X-Bow®-Infinity class, which provides high stability in rough weather and the smoothest of sailings. 

The ship offers two restaurants including a speciality restaurant with panoramic views, a wellness area and polar spa, swimming pool, jacuzzi, pool bar, the Albatros Nordic Bar, an open deck dining facility, modern lecture lounge and other state-of-the-art amenities. 

The 94 comfortable and tastefully decorated staterooms all offer unobstructed sea views, many from their own balcony. Most cabins can provide double or twin bed configuration along with a TV, table, chair, wardrobe and en-suite bathroom with shower.  

Category B cabins and above also receive a VIP package which includes unlimited access to the speciality restaurant, coffee machine, upgraded toiletries, stocked mini-bar, free laundry and wine and fruit at the commencement of the cruise.
