This is ocean cruising entirely reimagined, and once you’ve had such an enriching experience, you will seek more. Here’s just a glimpse of the many unique options and inclusions that you can expect when travelling on The World’s First Discovery Yacht.
Scenic Eclipse Submarine
Discover the mysteries of the underwater world as you go for a deep dive on the Scenic Eclipse submarine.
Scenic’s U-Boat Worx Cruise Submarine 7, Scenic Neptune, can take you to nature’s most beautiful underwater sites. Capable of diving up to 200-metres below the surface, you’ll be able to view icebergs, explore colourful coral reefs and watch for whales, seals, and penguins.
The state-of-the-art submarine features an innovative three-person pod on the front and the back for the ultimate sightseeing capability. Built for six guests and a pilot, passengers will enjoy mounted seats with a 180-degree swivel range, allowing for views on both sides of the submersible.
Strong exterior lights will allow guests to take in the colours and details of wrecks, natural landscapes, marine creatures and many kinds of mesmerising underwater sights.

Zodiacs and Kayaks
Scenic Eclipse is designed for discovery. From the icescapes of the Arctic and Antarctic, to the inlets and canals of South America and the Mediterranean, a yacht sized ship like Scenic Eclipse can reach many waterways that the larger ships can’t access. The benefit for guests, of course, is that more destinations are now within reach.
To maximise the sightseeing opportunities, Scenic provides a fleet of high-powered zodiacs and kayaks in which to explore.
Standout memories are sure to include majestic glaciers, ice clusters and breathtaking icebergs, with the chance to encounter the world’s most intriguing wildlife.
This equipment is also available in warm and sunny destinations. Explore the quiet seas around Milos Island in Greece, or experience the sparkling marine paradise of Isla de Providencia in Colombia. Paddle along the picture-perfect Amalfi Coast or take in the rich marine and birdlife.
Snorkel
Go below the water’s surface to discover new worlds. The Scenic Eclipse Discovery Team will host various snorkel adventures in the most beautiful locations imaginable. Whether it’s snorkelling near marine wildlife or exploring the Caribbean Sea, underwater adventures await the curious traveller.
