Max Passengers: 169
Ship Type: Expedition Cruise Ship
Operated by: Albatros Expeditions

Ocean Albatros, the sister ship to the Ocean Victory, will join Albatros Expeditions' fleet in 2023. The Ocean Albatros is perfect for exploring world-class expedition cruise destinations, including Antarctica and the Arctic, along with many new destinations throughout both polar regions. The ideal vessel for small-ship sailing thanks to her solid build and X-Bow®-Infinity class, which gives superior stability in adverse weather and allows for the smoothest motions on large waves, as well as a Solas 2012 certification that ensures a safe return to port.

The vessel is part of a new breed of low-energy vessels, powered by four diesel engines and two electric motors that are all electronically regulated to maximize speed and fuel efficiency. In addition to being one of the most environmentally friendly expedition ships, the vessel will have a carbon footprint that is more than 50% lower than that of a regular expedition ship.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).
