Originally built as an icebreaker, she has been reimagined for small-ship expeditions with 15 luxurious cabins.
Aqua Lares combines the spirit of exploration with the hallmarks of superyacht sailing.
Warm-paneled interiors, Dedar textiles, and bespoke Gaya Ceramics dishware weave together an enchanting ambiance of relaxed luxury.
Aqua Lares’ Sun Deck offers an exceptional vantage point to savor the ocean breeze and take in magnificent panoramas of the Arctic landscape. This elevated retreat features a lounge and bar — perfect for sunset cocktails, canapés, and intimate evening gatherings beneath the stars.
Aqua Lares pairs days of adventure with all the comforts of a five-star hotel, including a curated fine dining experience, highly personalized service, and a range of social spaces for rest and relaxation.
After a day exploring ashore, the Lower Deck spa becomes a place to recover—heat from the sauna, the calm of a therapeutic massage, and the gentle release of the indoor Jacuzzi restoring body and mind.
Aft-facing and partially sheltered, the Outdoor Lounge offers a calm, wind-protected space with tables, couches, chairs, and a dedicated bar. Just inside, the Indoor Lounge mirrors this relaxed atmosphere, with another bar and generous seating designed for both shared moments and quiet retreat.
On the Main Deck, the outdoor Jacuzzi offers a place to pause and soak in the Arctic surroundings. With the swim platform just a short step away, guests can alternate between the gentle warmth of the Jacuzzi and the invigorating chill of the ocean.
Aqua Lares guests are treated to world-class meals served family-style, with options for both indoor and outdoor dining. The Main Saloon offers a sophisticated setting with one long dining table beside an all-day hosted bar. Just outside is a shaded dining area with a second long table, for those who prefer to dine al fresco.
There's a certain spirit that yearns to venture where few have gone, to feel the wilder side of life, and embrace the unknown.
We are guided by that spirit.
We help others discover a world much bigger than the ones they encounter day-to-day, then explore it the way it deserves to be explored – with appreciation, time, and in harmony with nature.
