Polar Latitudes Expeditions
MV Discoverer is a boutique polar expedition vessel built for exploring some of the world’s most remote and striking regions with a strong focus on both capability and comfort. Designed for polar navigation and recently refurbished, she carries just 140 guests, creating an intimate setting with personalized service and flexible shore landings. With an Ice Class 1A hull and Polar Code compliance, the ship is well equipped for icy waters, while her smaller size allows access to remote coastlines that larger vessels cannot reach.
On board, guests experience a comfortable balance of expedition travel and boutique-style comfort. All staterooms are outward-facing, and many feature private balconies or Juliet balconies, keeping the scenery close throughout the voyage. Public spaces are designed to stay connected to the surroundings, especially the wrap-around Deck 6, which offers wide-open views of ice, wildlife, and endless horizons. After a day of exploration, guests can relax in the outdoor jacuzzis, take in panoramic views from the observation lounge, or unwind in the wellness suite, which includes a gym, sauna, and steam room.
