The Scenic Eclipse has set new standards in the 6-star luxury cruise segment. As the world's first Discovery Yacht™, the high-end ship surpasses everything that discerning sea travelers have come to expect from a ship in this class. Everything on board the 168-metre-long and 22-metre-wide Scenic Eclipse is world-class: the technology, the suites, the service and the variety of offers. New to the fleet is the Scenic Eclipse 2, which was christened in 2023 and is equipped just like its sister ship, the Scenic Eclipse 1.
Two helicopters, a submarine, excursion boats, kayaks, snorkeling equipment, snowshoes, e-bikes and much more enable endless adventures in the most exciting places in the world. Underwater drones and outdoor cameras transmit highlights around and under the ship to the screens in your own suite. Thanks to the "open bridge", you can look over the shoulders of the captain and crew as they maneuver the dream yacht whenever the situation allows.
The Scenic Eclipse is in a class of its own in the ultra-luxury cruise category. High-tech on board enables the ship to be classified in the ultimate polar class 6. An electronic Azipod propulsion system and oversized stabilizers guarantee the highest possible travel comfort in all waters. The ship moves extremely quietly and with little vibration. Thanks to dynamic GPS positioning, the yacht can maintain its position without dropping anchor. This protects sensitive seabeds.
