Discover Stockholm

Welcome to Stockholm

In 2024 we open up our base in Saltsjö Pir for the third consecutive year.   In the Stockholm archipelago there are more than 30,000 islands to explore.  Experience the best views with us. Welcome to the capital!

Sailing on the East Coast

Stockholm's archipelago is the largest in Sweden with about 30,000 islands, of which 200 are inhabited. Only the archipelago in southern Finland is larger. The archipelago ranges from Södermanland up to the coast to Uppland. Stockholm's archipelago is usually divided into three parts; the northern, the southern and the central archipelago.

The northern archipelago is most often referred to the coastal line between Vaxholm in the south and Norrtälje in the north. The southern archipelago is commonly referred to the area between Dalarö in the north and Nynäshamn in the south. The area between Vaxholm and Dalarö is commonly referred to as the central archipelago, consisting of many popular islands.

As you can see on the map, our base is located in the central archipelago, more specifically in Saltsjöbaden, a perfect starting point wherever you want to sail. Some distance away is Sandhamn, the east coast's equivalent of Marstrand. Vaxholm, Utö, Möja and Finnhamn are other popular islands in the area.

If you plan to sail for several weeks, there are many options. South of Stockholm is the beautiful St. Anna's archipelago. If you are closeby, it may be worth sailing over to Gotland. North of Stockholm you can find the popular Höga Kusten.  

Welcome to Saltsjöpir Marina

Our new base in central stockholm, discover the best of the archipelago.

With more than 40 years on the water, we've learned to know the very best places to explore from  the Swedish archipelagos . When you book a boat with us, we are happy to help you develop a route that suits you.   Feel free to read more below about some of our favorite places on the Swedish East Coast.

Vaxholm is its own urban area in Uppland, with its center within walking distance of the guest harbor. A relaxing archipelago town with a large selection for every need.

A historic island in a fantastic location. In Sandhamn there are plenty of restaurants, bars and shops but the island is large and offers calm, peaceful spots as well.

Ingmarsö

Ingmarsö is the relaxing archipelago idyll and the living archipelago. Here you find protection from all winds and you can enjoy fantastic, peaceful sunsets in the evening.

Dalarö

Sometimes referred to as "the gateway to paradise". Dalarö is the place where history and the future meet. There are three guest harbors, with fantastic service and incredible facilities. 

Fjäderholmarna

One of the closest archipelago islands, a perfect last night stop. Here you will find plenty of food, crafts and fantastic nature. A popular place for both Stockholmers and tourists.

Grinda is one of the most popular destinations in the archipelago The guest harbor is very nice, and from here you are always close to both beaches, cliffs and walking paths.

Sail with a Skipper

If you decide to sail with a skipper, you don't need any prior experience with sailing or boats. The skipper knows the archipelago well and will guide you to the most beautiful places you want to see. Before sailing off, you'll plan your trip together in the Saltsjö Pir Marina. Afterwards, you can simply relax and enjoy the journey. If you're curious about sailing - this is a great opportunity to learn!

Sailing Itinerary of Stockholm Archipelago and the Baltic Sea

The perfect route, scheduled by the weather and the wind

Here is a sample itinerary for a one-week sailing in the archipelago built on a few highlights, natural harbors, villages, and islands. The best sailing trips are planned between you and your Captain. Your Captain will take into consideration weather conditions, what type of sailing you are expecting, and what kind of overnight places you prefer.

Highlights of the Stockholm Archipelago

The Stockholm archipelago is often described as a sailing paradise. There are certainly countless opportunities here. Whatever weather, wind force, or wind direction there is, great sailing is always at hand. There are several small harbors in the archipelago area and thousands of natural ones, so finding a spot to overnight is a breeze.

The archipelago consists of 33,000 islands and the total area covers around 3,500 square km, making it one of the biggest archipelagos in the world!  The Stockholm Archipelago was first inhabited over 1000 years ago and by the 17th century, all places hidden from the bad weather were populated. Today 70 % of the archipelago belongs to the nonprofit organization “Skärgårdsstiftelsen”, who’s committed to keeping it free of building projects and other environmentally unfriendly projects.

The character of the landscape is very different close to the mainland compared to the outer archipelago. The landscape close to shore, and on bigger islands, consist of large trees and robust topography. The islands further out have fewer and smaller trees that incline away from the winter storms and bare rocks outcroppings shaped by the ice 10,000 years ago.

There are plenty of small villages to visit on the islands. Some are former mining villages while others are major hubs for sailing with large harbors. Visiting the islands is a nice way to discover Swedish culture and learn about how people lived in the archipelago hundreds of years ago.

Highlights in the Baltic Sea

The Baltic Sea offers a wide spectrum of destinations outside the Stockholm Archipelago. Gotland, with its spectacular landscape, is one day sailing away. The big island offers fantastic beaches and a lot of historic places. The Finnish archipelago contains about 60,000 islands. In this archipelago, there are fewer houses and yachts than on the Swedish side. Passing Gotland and extended sailing on open water for 24 hours lies the Baltic states of “Estonia” and “Latvia”. These countries are developing very rapidly, but you can still see remains from when they belonged to Russia.

There are eight countries with coastlines in the Baltic Sea. Sweden has the longest coastal shoreline with Finland as a close second.  The water in the Baltic Sea is brackish, and therefore the fauna is very different from the other side of Sweden, where the water is saltier. The Atlantic current brings in warm water and southwesterly winds, giving Scandinavia a mild climate.

The Vikings inhabited Gotland island from the year 700-900 and left behind small houses, harbors, and graves still visible today. Gotland has a very strategic position in the Baltic, and therefore, there have been several battles on the island.  Nature in this part of the Baltic is quite different, with sandy beaches and no rocks. Today Visby is a fantastic summer town with lots of restaurants, clubs, and bars. North of Gotland lies an amazing island called Gotska Sandön, whose landscape often is compared to the Mediterranean.

Superyacht Charter Stockholm

Private Yachting Cruises in Stockholm Archipelago

A vast archipelago of over 30,000 islands sprawling out from the chic colourful waterside city of Stockholm, this destination offers culture, adventure and fantastic scenery. Best explored on a smaller sailing yacht, it is a true return to nature. Rent a crewed motor or sailing boat with YPI to have the best cruising possible in the Stockholm Archipelago. This is an example of an eight day yacht charter itinerary. Yacht charter itineraries are created individually for every client based around personal preferences and how you want to spend your time onboard your superyacht in the Stockholm Archipelago.

Welcome Onboard

Söderarm Archipelago

History and views.

Eight miles long and four miles wide, Söderarm Archipelago faces the open water towards Åland and Finland. Visit the sauna built in a foxhole from the Second World War. Your approach will offer excellent views typical for the outer archipelago, with smooth rocks and a lighthouse dating to 1839. In the evening, have dinner aboard your private motor or sailing boat while sailing into the sunset.

Stora Nassa

Rare wildlife.

With 365 islands, Stora Nassa is the largest of the 20 archipelagos. Spot wildlife from the decks of your superyacht, particularly birds. Look for the eider duck, rarely seen outside the coast. Walk the island’s birch woodlands and luxuriate in being surrounded by nature.

Sweden Sailing

Sail to the bustling island of Sandhamn, at the centre of a group of islands that creates a natural sheltered harbour. Sandhamn offers fabulous sailing conditions, and is the centre of sailing boat activities on the east coast of Sweden, with the “Around Gotland” or “ÅF Offshore Race” taking place here every year. Dine in the island’s restaurants, enjoy its outdoor bars and hotel terraces overlooking the harbour, and browse shops selling local products and nautical gifts. Relax on beaches of white sand lined by pines.

Skärvassa, Nämdö

Sauna experience.

The ancient island of Nämdö dates back to the 13th century, when it was mentioned in King Valdemar of Sweden’s sailing guide. Being one of the archipelago’s largest islands, it offers the protected bay of Skärvassa, where superyachts can anchor in any wind conditions. For a typical Swedish island experience, head to the bay’s wooden fired sauna, where guest chop firewood, fire it up, indulge in the heat and then dive into the cooling sea!

Saltsjöbaden

Exclusive enclave.

Dock your superyacht at the Royal Yacht Club, KSSS, offering a marina, sailing school and much more. Built as recently as 1889 as a new suburb to Stockholm, Skärvassa today is home to the modern Stockholm elite, with a beautiful luxury hotel on the waterfront overlooking the marina.

Byttafladen

Lagoon lakes.

Your superyacht crew will navigate the tricky entranceway into Byttafladen, a protected lagoon of lake-still waters. Hike to the top of the island through narrow pathways and flowerbeds carved out by the elements, to enjoy fantastic views out over the archipelago.

Disembark in Stockholm. Spanning 14 islands, Stockholm is known by locals as the Nordic Venice. Sail all the way into the centre of Stockholm and enjoy city views from the decks of your private superyacht. Once you arrive, discover everything this vibrant city has to offer, from the coolest design stores to palaces and cathedrals. Lose yourself in the tiny cobblestone streets of the historic Gamla Stan quarter. Dining is one of the great pleasures here – seek out the most innovative restaurants or experience gastronomic cuisine, created to the highest standard of innovation.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (“ Terms ”) CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND OBLIGATIONS AS WELL AS A SECTION GOVERNING THE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF DISPUTES. THESE TERMS ALSO CONTAIN A LEGALLY BINDING RELEASE, WAIVER OF LIABILITY, AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK. By creating a username, a login, clicking submit, using the services of Charter Experts, LLC d/b/a Virgin Island Sailing® (“ Broker ) or by accessing Broker’s website, you agree that you have read, and acknowledge your acceptance of these Terms. The Terms are subject to change at any time without notice at Broker’s sole discretion. Additionally, any transaction for which you have made payment shall be governed by the form of Terms in effect at the time of such payment notwithstanding any subsequent changes hereto.

If you are obtaining a quote, information, booking travel for and/or securing or procuring a Charter (as that term is defined in Section 1 below) for more than just yourself, all references below to “Charterer” or “you” (and derivations thereof) shall be read to mean you on behalf of yourself and each individual within your group for whom you are obtaining a quote, information, booking travel for and/or securing or procuring Charter.

These Terms shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with any other agreement by or among Broker and Charterer. To the extent they cannot be so construed, then in the event of any direct conflict between these Terms and any other agreement by or among Broker and Charterer (including but not limited to the agreement executed by Charterer for a Charter Reservation (as that term is defined in Section 1 below), these Terms shall prevail.

• Prepaid Charter Reservations . Typically, Broker negotiates charter rates in advance with the yacht owner or charter company (“ Charter Provider ”) to obtain cost-effective rates, and facilitate reservations and availability for yacht charters, excursions and travel (the “ Charter ”). Broker also provides services to you by facilitating the booking of reservations for consideration and receives a commission from the Charter Provider (the “ Broker Fee ”). The Broker Fee is included in the pre-negotiated Charter rate provided to you, plus taxes and other fees where applicable. You agree that your payment is for the total amount set forth in the applicable Charter agreement (which Charter Provider may refer to as a Charter Contract, Charter Agreement, Booking Terms & Conditions, Instructions and Terms for Accommodations, as well as other derivations) provided to you by Broker (“ Charter Agreement ”). Upon execution of the Charter Agreement and receipt of the applicable deposit, you will have made a reservation for the Charter that authorizes Broker to facilitate the Charter on your behalf (“Charter Reservation”), including making payment arrangements with the Charter Provider. You further agree that Broker is a third-party beneficiary to the Charter Agreement and shall have the right to enforce such agreement to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights hereunder or under the Charter Agreement.

  Broker retains the Broker Fee as compensation in arranging your Charter Reservation. The Broker Fee varies based on the amount and type of Charter and/or services provided by Broker.  By making a Charter Reservation, you accept and agree to the relevant cancellation and no-show policy of the Charter Provider set forth in the Charter Agreement. Cancellation and no-show policies vary for each Charter. Carefully read the Charter Agreement and additional information provided to you by Broker. It is expressly agreed by Charterer that the Broker Fee is earned at the time the Charter Reservation is made. Late payment, wrong credit card or debit card details, invalid credit or debit cards, or insufficient funds are for your own risk and account, and you will not be entitled to any refund of any prepaid amount unless the Charter Provider expressly agrees otherwise under the Charter Agreement or in some other signed writing.

• Charter Rules and Restrictions . Additional terms and agreements will apply to your Charter Reservation and any purchase or rental of equipment or other items, supplies, provisions and travel you may select. Please read those additional terms carefully. In particular, if you have purchased airfare, please ensure that you read the full terms and conditions of carriage issued by the supplier. You agree to abide by the terms of purchase imposed by any supplier with whom you elect to deal, including but not limited to payment of all amounts when due and compliance with the supplier’s rules and restrictions regarding availability, charges, fares, and use of products and services.
• Payment . All payments must be made by personal check, bank/wire transfer, ACH payment and/or with a major credit card unless otherwise expressly stated. The total price for the Charter Reservation will be billed in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated. Some banks and credit card companies impose fees for international transactions. If you are making a reservation from outside of the United States on a US credit card, your bank may convert the payment amount to your local currency and charge you a conversion fee. This means the amount listed on your credit or bank card statement may be in your local currency and therefore a different figure than the amount provided by Broker for the Charter Reservation. In addition, a foreign transaction fee may be assessed if the financial institution that issued your credit card is located outside of the United States. Booking international travel may be considered to be an international transaction by the financial institution or card company. The currency exchange rate and foreign transaction fee is determined solely by your financial institution on the day that it processes the transaction. If you have any questions about these fees or the exchange rate applied to your booking, please contact your financial institution. Broker shall not be liable to you for any such service, conversion, or exchange fee.

  Broker expressly reserves the right to cancel your Charter Reservation if full payment is not timely received as set forth in the Charter Agreement.

• Cancellation and Rescheduling . You may cancel or change your Charter Reservation as set forth in the Charter Agreement by and among you, the Charter Provider and/or Broker. Please note that some Charter Providers do not permit changes to or cancellation of reservations after they are made, or after a certain date, as indicated in the Charter Agreement. You agree to abide by the terms of the Charter Agreement with respect to your Charter Reservation. Broker will not be responsible for reimbursing Charterer for any previously tendered deposits or payments by Charterer and disclaims all liability for the failure of a Charter Provider to refund or return any such funds.
• Credit Card Transactions and Chargebacks . If for any reason, any Charter Provider is unable to provide the Charter, or any part thereof, for which you have contracted, your remedy lies against the Charter Provider, and not against Broker. However, Broker will use reasonable efforts to assist you and Charter Provider in reaching a resolution to a dispute between you and the Charter Provider. In the event that your payment has already been transferred from Broker to Charter Provider or to an escrow account, you agree that you will not seek a chargeback against Broker for such amounts transferred. You further agree to indemnify and hold Broker harmless from and against any liability, loss, damage or expense (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) that Broker may incur in connection with chargebacks against Broker or under the Charter Agreement and your performance thereunder. If Broker incurs any costs, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, to recover any payments charged back by your credit card company or other financial institution, you agree that you will be liable for these costs. If your payment is declined for any reason, you agree to settle any amounts owed to Broker via money order, cashier’s check, personal check or bank/ACH transfer immediately.
• Broker Responsibility . Broker makes arrangements with the Charter Provider. Broker additionally makes additional arrangements with other suppliers for the various components and other services that comprise your Charter (“Charter Suppliers”). Broker is not an agent of these Charter Providers or the Charter Suppliers (and the Charter Providers and Charter Suppliers are not agents of Broker). Broker expressly disclaims any liability for the actions or omissions of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. The Charter Providers and the Charter Suppliers reserve the right to refuse service to you at their sole discretion. Broker assumes no liability for the acts of the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers in refusing service. Broker is not responsible for schedule changes and does not offer compensation for those changes. Broker is not responsible under any circumstances for any injury or damages you may suffer, in connection with sea, air or ground transportation, hotel accommodations, or other travel or excursion services arranged by Broker.

  You understand Broker is not the source or supplier of the Charter or other travel services you requested and acts solely as a broker for the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers. You agree that the Charter Provider and Charter Suppliers whose names appear in the information supplied to you are those who are solely responsible for providing the Charter you purchase. You consent to and request the use of the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers and agree to not hold Broker responsible should any of them: (i) fail to provide the Charter or travel services you purchased, whether or not such services are listed in the Charter Agreement or otherwise, (ii) fail to comply with any applicable law, or (iii) engage in any negligent act or omission that causes you any sort of injury, damage, delay or inconvenience.

By using Broker’s services, you waive and release any claim against Broker, its affiliated and subsidiary companies, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents, arising out of or in connection with any loss of or damage to property or injury to any person caused by reason of (i) any defect, negligence, or other wrongful act or omission, or any failure of performance of any kind, by any Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, or any other provider of sea, airline, hotel, ground transportation or any other travel provider connected to or otherwise associated with the Charter, (ii) any claim for inconvenience, loss of enjoyment, mental distress or other similar claim, (iii) any delayed departure, missed connection, substitute accommodation, termination of service or change in fares or rates, and (iv) overbooking, flight or other travel cancellation, lost or misconnected personal property, or any claim arising out of the air transportation portion of your travel, and (v) or any other claim arising out of or otherwise related to the Charter Agreement or services provided by the Charter Provider and the Charter Suppliers.

Excepting only liability that directly arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Broker, you will not hold Broker responsible for any injury, damage or loss you may suffer while on a Charter, whether incurred on the Charter or in connection with any other rental, purchase, excursion or activity, regardless of the relationship of any of the foregoing with the Charter Provider or the Charter Suppliers.

• Your Responsibility . By booking a Charter with Broker, you agree to defend and indemnify and hold harmless Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any and all claims, causes of action, demands, recoveries, losses, damages, fines, penalties or other costs or expenses of any kind or nature, including but not limited to reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in connection with: (i) your breach of these Terms or the documents referenced herein; (ii) your violation of any law or rights of a third party; or (iii) your use of the Broker website.

You will review your Charter Agreement and travel documents for accuracy upon receipt. You understand that it is your responsibility to review the accuracy of all details in the Charter Reservation provided to you, and that you may contact Broker if you have any questions.

You assume full and complete responsibility for checking and verifying any and all passport, visa, vaccination, or other entry requirements of your destination(s), and all conditions regarding health, safety, security, political stability, and labor or civil unrest at such destination(s).

You understand that Broker recommends purchasing travel insurance to cover certain risks inherent in travel such as supplier bankruptcy and the inability to travel due to a medical or personal emergency.

• No Warranties . All Charters, products, services, advice and information is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied to the fullest extent permitted under the law, including but not limited to, warranties of title or implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality or fitness for a particular purpose. Without limiting the above, no warranty or guarantee is made (i) regarding the acceptance of any reservation request or Charter Reservation; (ii) regarding the availability of Charters, or any other product and/or services through Broker; (iii) that the use of Broker’s website will be error-free; or (iv) regarding the completeness, accuracy, reliability or quality of any information, content, data, service, advice or merchandise provided by Broker or through Broker’s website.

Broker has no special knowledge regarding the Charter Provider’s or Charter Supplier’s financial condition, unsafe conditions, health hazards, weather hazards, or climate extremes at locations to which you may travel during or otherwise in connection with your Charter.

• Limitation on Liability . In no event shall Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Suppliers, and/or their respective affiliates, or any employees, agents, officers, directors, members or managers of any of the foregoing (“Broker and Charter Releasees”), be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special or consequential damages arising out of, or in any way connected with, your access to, display of or use the Broker’s website, the Charter or services provided to you in connection with the Charter (including, but not limited to, your reliance upon opinions of the Broker), whether based on a theory of negligence, contract, tort, strict liability, consumer protection statutes, or otherwise, and even if Broker and/or any other of the Broker and Charter Releasees have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

If, despite the limitation above, Broker or the Broker and Charter Releasees are found liable for any loss or damage which arises out of or in any way connected with any of the occurrences described above, then Broker, Charter Provider, Charter Supplier and the Broker and Charter Releasees will in no event exceed, in the aggregate, the greater of (a) the Broker Fee, and (b) One-Hundred Dollars (US $100.00).

The foregoing limitation of liability reflects the allocation of risk between the parties. The limitations specified in this section will survive and apply even if any limited remedy specified in these Terms is found to have failed of its essential purpose. The limitations of liability provided in these Terms inure to the benefit of Broker and/or its providers.

The foregoing does not affect any liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

• Limitation on Time to File Claims . ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF RELATING TO BROKER’S SERVICES OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
• Waiver . No waiver by Broker of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Broker to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
• Severability . If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect.
• Governing Law and Mandatory Venue . The laws of the State of Florida govern the rights and obligations of the parties to this Agreement and the interpretation, construction and enforceability thereof. You agree that any action or proceeding initiated by Charterer against Broker shall be brought solely in the federal and state courts of Hillsborough County, Florida, and you submit to the jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objections to the exercise of personal jurisdiction over you by those courts. In the event any action or proceeding is initiated by Charterer in a court outside of Hillsborough County, Florida, Charterer agrees to pay Broker’s costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees associated with defending such action or proceeding and waives any and all defenses to the transfer of said action or proceeding, whether jurisdictional or otherwise, to a federal or state court in Hillsborough County, Florida.

The South Pole by superyacht: the top yachts available for charter in Antarctica

Related articles, superyacht directory.

The increasing desire for superyacht owners and charterers to get off the grid is growing, with guests wanting to explore some truly adventurous destinations. Even one of the world’s final frontiers – the wintery reaches of ice-covered Antarctica – has become an attraction for anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime superyacht charter experience. 

Whether you’re a lover of skiing and snow sports or a wildlife-watching enthusiast who’s hoping to spot the region's famous residents like penguins and whales, the Antarctica Peninsula should be on your travel bucket list – and there’s no better way to discover this destination than on a luxury superyacht expedition. 

BOAT takes a closer look at the explorer superyachts currently available for charter in Antarctica to help you plan your voyage to the end of the earth…

Pink Shadow

Stats: 58.3m, Damen Yachting , 2023, 12 guests, 17 crew

What to expect in Antarctica : With a gleaming green hull, an imaginative interior and superior expedition credentials, 58.3-metre Pink Shadow has every feature one could dream of for an expedition yacht. Her interiors are inspired by an epic adventure film set in the Amazon basin and she even has a Habana room on board where guests can wind down with a cigar after a day on the ice. 

Pink Shadow is managed by Y.CO with a weekly charter rate starting from €510,000.

Stats: 126.2 metres, Lürssen , 2003, 12 guests, 45 crew

What to expect in Antarctica: Widely considered the first true explorer, 126-metre Octopus famously belonged to Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen before being sold in 2021. Equipped with an ice-classed 1A steel hull, a flotilla of tenders and cool expedition features such as an ROV, Octopus is perhaps the most extravagant way to see Antarctica. 

Octopus is managed by Camper & Nicholsons with a weekly charter rate starting from $2,200,000.

Hanse Explorer

Stats: 47.8m, Fassmer , 2006, 12 guests, 15 crew

What to expect in Antarctica: Returning to the frozen south virtually every season, 48-metre Hanse Explorer is perhaps the most popular choice for Antarctic expeditions. Built in 2006 (and extensively refitted in 2021), she has a high commercial ice classification, refined interiors, and an onboard expedition team to enhance your experience. Accommodation on board is for 12 across seven comfortable cabins. Hanse Explorer is managed by EYOS Expeditions with a weekly charter rate starting from $245,000 per week.

Stats: 77.4m, IHC Verschure , 1974, 22 guests, 28 crew

What to expect in Antarctica: Having started life as a Dutch-built tug in 1974 with Class 1 ice-breaking credentials, 77.4-metre Legend is a seasoned pro of the Antarctic Peninsula. Capable of sleeping 22 guests, she features a commercial helideck, a submarine and a spa pool that can take 16 people. While she may be tough, her interior is more akin to that of a stately home. 

Legend is managed for charter by Y.CO with a weekly rate starting from €625,000.
