8-day superyacht expedition on board the former icebreaker Aqua Lares (max. 30 passengers) from/to Longyearbyen around Spitsbergen
On board the region's only icebreaker superyacht, you will experience the untouched Arctic as unfiltered, intensively and comfortably as few people are able to.
Your exclusive expedition around Spitsbergen in the rugged Arctic Circle region reveals a world of imposing glaciers, crystal-clear fjords and sheer endless expanses of pack ice. The golden light of the midnight sun bathes the tundra and coasts in shades of silver, pink and gold at the best time of year in summer.
The Aqua Lares takes you to regions of the High Arctic that remain inaccessible to ordinary ships, combining the vastness of the polar world with luxurious comfort: 15 stylish suites, a sun deck, a Jacuzzi, exquisite cuisine and personal 1:1 support ensure an extremely comfortable stay in one of the world's most remote wilderness regions between your experiences on water and on land.
Landings at historic sites such as Smeerenburg or Gravneset accompanied by experienced guides bring the history of the early Arctic explorers to life. Fjords such as Liefdefjorden and Raudfjorden reflect glacier walls and icebergs, while Zodiacs and kayaks allow you to explore even the quietest bays and most remote corners of the coast. Tours through the pack ice are also on your activity program.
The region's already iconic wildlife is even more impressive in the Arctic summer: polar bears roam the pack ice in search of prey, walruses rest on secluded beaches, bearded seals lie on drifting ice floes and lively colonies of puffins, thick-billed guillemots and eider ducks populate the cliffs. Occasionally, majestic beluga whales appear in the calm fjords - a sight of great rarity.
It is the perfect combination of direct contact with the untamed coastal landscape of Spitsbergen with its surprisingly diverse wildlife, historic sites and the luxury on board the Aqua Lares that makes this superyacht expedition in the Arctic Circle a once-in-a-lifetime trip.
Plan dzień po dniu
Board the Aqua Lares in Longyearbyen, the northernmost town in the world, and settle into your luxurious cabin.
In the afternoon, visit Alkehornet, an impressive bird cliff where thousands of guillemots and herring gulls nest. The tundra below often attracts reindeer to graze and, with a bit of luck, you may also see the cunning Arctic fox on the hunt.
