Summary

The White Continent has piqued the imagination of explorers for centuries. Let it inspire yours on this unforgettable Expedition Voyage to East Antarctica’s Ross Sea on board your ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht, Scenic Eclipse II.

Unlike anything you have experienced before, an expedition to Antarctica’s Ross Sea Region on board Scenic Eclipse II will leave you breathless.
