Ultramarine by Quark Expeditions, Antarctica

Embark on the polar expedition of your dreams aboard Ultramarine, a state-of-the-art luxury cruise ship featuring a portfolio of thrilling adventures.

Designed to traverse breathtaking Antarctic landscapes, this exceptional vessel transports you to the most remote part of our planet. Settle down in a spacious suite with a cosy sitting area, sofa bed and heated floor, where a picture window overlooks stunning polar landscapes, bathing you in sunlight during Antarctic summers. The front view decks are ideal to view steep glacial cliffs at Lemaire Channel and icebergs meeting whales at Disko Bay. Watch polar drama unfold behind you in widescreen at the rear decks. After a hot toddy at Bistro 487, a workout at the gym and socialising at Panorama Lounge and Bar, you can book a relaxing treatment at Tundra Spa and Sauna. Balena Restaurant serves sumptuous buffet breakfast and lunches and glorious a la carte dinners with the option of a starry stroll on the wraparound deck before you retire for the night. The Ultramarine has 20 well-equipped Zodiacs (boats) across four points on the lower deck that whisk you away on exciting cruises and wildlife sightings. Even more impressive are the two Airbus H145 helicopters, manned by military-trained engineers. With direct access to remote polar wilderness, they take you where no other man or machine can. Hop in for adrenaline-pumping adventure, including skiing, hiking, kayaking and mountain biking in the Antarctic Peninsula and the southern coasts of Greenland. Despite its scale and capacity, the Ultramarine is one of the most sustainable vessels in the sea. It’s revolutionary Micro Auto Gasification System (MAGS) which turns onboard waste into excess energy that powers itself and your South Pole dreams.
