Overview

Ocean Nova stands as an excellent vessel for Antarctic expeditions. Originating from Denmark in 1992, this resilient expedition ship was specifically crafted to navigate the ice-laden waters of Greenland. Its reinforced hull makes it an ideal choice for expeditionary journeys in Antarctica. The vessel underwent a complete refurbishment in 2006, and since then, it has undergone annual enhancements and upgrades.

Designed for air-cruises, Ocean Nova can comfortably accommodate 67 passengers in well-appointed outside cabins. The accommodation options include dedicated Single Cabins, Twin Cabins, and Triple Cabins. Each cabin is equipped with amenities such as a picture window, a writing desk with a chair, a wardrobe, an individually controlled heating system, and a private bathroom with a shower.

Beyond the cabins, Ocean Nova boasts a glass-enclosed observation lounge and presentation room, along with a spacious dining area, a bar, a library, a small gym, and an infirmary. The ship is also equipped with a fleet of 7 Zodiac boats, ideal for safe disembarkation and wildlife observation.
