  The Atmosphere

The Atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between substantial exploration capabilities and a unique and elegant style. It is equipped in every aspect to guarantee a pleasant, exciting and safe voyage through Patagonian waters.

The Atmosphere's steel hull, twin engines and twin propellers with variable pitch make her able to maneuver easily no matter the current or sea conditions. In order that travelers are able to have the widest variety of adventure explorations, she carries a Bell 407 helicopter, jet boats, zodiacs, sea kayaks, mid-sized rafts, and catacrafts.

The Atmosphere is reliable and possesses unique characteristics that provide comfort to our guests. Among them are our spectacular cabins and a spa service that pampers the guests like no other. And if this weren't enough, the Atmosphere has developed a Chilean cuisine menu that includes typical dishes in a modern and fresh way.

And to make this journey one that lasts in your memory forever, the Atmosphere also possesses a gift shop on board where our guests will be able to purchase souvenirs of all kinds.
