Icebird, a rare breed of expedition yacht built for those who crave raw, intimate adventure. Designed specifically for polar conditions, she takes you deeper into Antarctica’s heart than larger vessels ever could.
Icebird is available on select departures, either as an optional day sail or as a multi-day extension during our Ultimate Antarctica journey.
Purpose-built for polar conditions, she’s classified for operation in all oceans — including the Arctic and Antarctic. Icebird’s ice-reinforced aluminium hull features six watertight compartments for maximum safety. Her heated, double-glazed pilothouse saloon offers panoramic views of the spectacular Antarctic landscapes as the yacht navigates through ice and sea.
