Ultramarine, the newest ship from Quark Expeditions, is now open for booking.
The ship, which is purpose-built for the Polar regions, will sail with 199 guests and 140 crew to Spitsbergen, Greenland, the Canadian Arctic, and more when it debuts for the 2020-2021 season.
The vessel will have nine different stateroom categories, including solo cabins, triple cabins, and an Ultra Suite that will offer 563 square feet of living space and a 46-square-foot balcony. Each cabin will have convertible beds, heated bathroom floors, and flat screen televisions.
It will also feature two twin-engine helicopters, new public spaces, and more outdoor wildlife viewing space than any other similar-sized ship. Other onboard amenities include two different dining areas, four bars, a spa and fitness center, sauna, a walk-around deck, and a lecture theater that will host educational sessions for guests traveling in the polar regions.
