Scenic Eclipse Review

Review of scenic eclipse.

The 2019-built Scenic Eclipse cruise ship is a top-luxury boat with max passenger capacity 228 (plus 192 staff-crew) that looks more like a tycoon-owned superyacht than a passenger vessel. Its design features an ice-strengthened hull, top-deck helipad (with two on-deck stored helicopters / in hangars), 12x Zodiacs (high-speed, large-capacity RIBs / rigid inflatable boats), 1x mini-sub (7-person submarine), 1x ROV (camera-equipped Remotely Operated Vehicle). The aft-located Marina Platform is used for launching water sports equipment (aqua quad-bikes, seakayaks, paddleboards, snorkeling and scuba diving activities).

The vessel (IMO number 9797371) is currently Bahamas- flagged (MMSI 311000995) and registered in Nassau .

Scenic Eclipse cruise ship

With the yacht Scenic Eclipse, the river cruisetour company Scenic Tours (travel brand) entered the ocean cruising market. The ship was initially scheduled for delivery in August 2018, but due to construction issues was first rescheduled for January, then for April 2019. In February 2018, the shipowner Scenic Group (aka Scenic Tours Australia) signed a shipbuilding contract for the second (same-design) vessel - Scenic Eclipse II . The sistership was scheduled for delivery in 2020 but was eventually postponed to 2023 April.

Scenic's new market strategy followed the moves of Viking River Cruises (entering the ocean cruising market in 2015 with Viking Star ) and Crystal Cruises (entering the mega-yachting market in 2015 with Crystal Esprit/now Nat Geo Islander 2 ). Besides Scenic Luxury Cruises and Tours, the shipowner Scenic Group also owns the subsidiary and travel brand Emerald Cruises .

Scenic Eclipse cruise ship

Scenic's new ships are advertised as "discovery yachts". The hull has the highest passenger ship ice-class (1A-Super) allowing the vessel to operate on polar cruises (Arctic and Antarctica itineraries) for 3 months a year. On polar voyages, the ship's passenger capacity is limited to 200 in order to allow several Zodiac landings per day.

Scenic Cruises yacht submarine

The ship's two helicopters Airbus H130 (single-engine aircraft, each with capacity 7 passengers) can be booked/hired at extra charge. Helicopter tours allow passengers to get closer to the wildlife in comparison to the Zodiac landings. Also at an additional charge can be booked the ship's onboard submarine. The 7-person submarine (1 pilot plus 6 guests) is named "Scenic Neptune" and is capable to submerge up to 1000 ft (305 m).

The ship has "zero speed stabilizer fins" (50% larger than the standard on similar-sized vessels) allowing it to navigate in rough seas with just little movement. Voyages to Antarctica include passing Drake Passage - a notoriously rough waterway between South America and Antarctica.

Decks and Cabins

Scenic Eclipse staterooms (114 total) are all double-occupancy Suites in total 14 categories. Cabin sizes range between 345 ft2 / 32 m2 (Veranda Suite) to 2745 ft2 / 255 m2 (2-Bedroom Penthouse Suite, with included 645 ft2 / 60 m2 wraparound terrace). Owners Penthouse Suites are sized 1990 ft2 / 185 m2 (balcony included). Each cabin has a private step-out balcony. The vessel has an almost 1:1 passenger-to-crew ratio and each stateroom are served by a dedicated butler.

Four Lifts (midship-located Elevators) interconnect all cabin decks.

Scenic Eclipse Wiki

The Malta- flagged luxury superyacht Scenic Eclipse (IMO number 9797371, MMSI 248526000) was built with the latest technological advancements in order to ensure the highest safety standards. It has custom-built stabilizers (50% bigger than other vessels) and an ice-strengthened hull. The vessel's state-of-the-art fins (propulsion units) are able to adjust themselves, enabling the ship to handle the strongest water currents and to remain stable.

Unlike other ships that use traditional anchors, the cruise ship is fitted with a dynamic positioning system. It uses GPS data to accurately maintain its position, which is an eco-friendly way to control the vessel. Other environmentally sustainable systems are advanced / more efficient marine engines and water treatment system.

On November 22, 2016, started vessel's construction with the steel-cutting ceremony held at Uljanik Shipyard JSC ( Pula Croatia ), Ship's integrated navigation and automation system was provided by the Norwegian company Kongsberg Maritime. This modern technology combines the following systems - Navigation, Dynamic Positioning, Automation, Emergency Shutdown, Power Management, Safety Management, and Control. The system is integrated with online diagnostics and remote service facilities.

On April 28, 2017, at Uljanik Shipyard was held vessel's keel-laying / coin ceremony. The special event was attended by Glen Moroney (Scenic Tours' founder and chairman). He placed an Australian coin beneath the ship's keel - a right of passage for every newbuild , to bring good fortune to its passengers and crew.

On January 31, 2018, was the ship's launch (float-out ceremony) at Uljanik Shipyard. The delivery was scheduled for August 31, 2018, but due to the shipyard's financial issues was rescheduled for April 13, 2019. Sea trials were successfully completed on June 13, 2019.

Both Scenic Cruises yachts are built in Croatia - Eclipse 1 in Pula (Uljanik shipyard), Eclipse 2 in Rijeka (3 Maj Shipyard), The following YouTube video is a timelapse of the Scenic yachts construction process.

The ship's Captain is James Griffiths - British, former Captain of the superyacht Wind Star ( Windstar ) and National Geographic Explorer ( NatGeo-Lindblad Expeditions ). He has also served on 10 other ships (as Captain on 4 of them) and also worked for Cunard Line for 11 years - as Chief Officer of RMS Queen Mary 2 .

In late-July 2019 was announced that the ship's godmother will be Helen Mirren (Dame Helen Lydia Mirren) - 1945-born English actress who won British Academy Film Award for Best Actress (1984, 1985, 2006, 2012), British Academy TV Award for Best Actress (1991, 1992, 1993, 1995, 1996, 2003), Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress (1983, 2001, 2004, 2013) and Tony Award for Best Actress (1995, 2002, 2005), among others.

Vessel's official christening ceremony was held on September 10, 2019, in Port NYC (New York USA) .

Since August 19, 2020, the vessel's crew managing company is Viking Crew (part of the Dover UK -based Viking Maritime Group Ltd). Viking Crew is responsible for the Scenic Eclipse 1 yacht's crew recruitment, management, deployment and placement, including the officers and staff-crew from the onboard Engine, Hotel and Deck departments. Viking Crew was also contracted for the crew management of the superyachts Scenic Eclipse 2 (2022) and Emerald Azzurra (2021).

Scenic Eclipse: 5 Years of Discovery & Innovation

The maiden voyage of scenic eclipse in august 2019 was a momentous event for scenic. the debut of the world’s first discovery yacht marked the beginning of ultra-luxury ocean cruising for the company, already renowned for its worldwide escorted land tours and all-inclusive river cruises in europe and south east asia since its inception in 1986. .

The 6-star Scenic Eclipse also changed the direction of expedition cruising, instantly setting the benchmark in ultra-luxury experiences, state-of-the-art technology and custom ship design.    After a christening by Dame Helen Mirren in New York City on 10 September 2019, Scenic Eclipse set sail along the Atlantic and into a class of its own. Over the next five years, Scenic Eclipse charted a course to the top of the industry, garnering many awards along the way.   In 2023, Scenic Eclipse was joined by a second Discovery Yacht, Scenic Eclipse II, which was christened by NASA scientist Dr Kathy Sullivan. Together, the Discovery Yachts have navigated all seven continents and the world’s most remote and breathtaking destinations while continuing to raise the bar for discovery experiences and innovation.    As Scenic’s pioneering Discovery Yachts celebrate their fifth anniversary, here’s a look at some highlights from the new era of ultra-luxury ocean cruising.

Continuous Innovation

“since the debut of scenic eclipse in 2019, we have set the benchmark in ultra-luxury ocean cruising. the mkm yachts team and our dedicated crew are very proud of the continuous innovation and unrivalled discovery yacht experiences we’ve created over the past five years”.

Glen Moroney, Chairman & Founder, Scenic Group 

Industry-leading features and sleek design combine to allow Scenic Eclipse to reach destinations inaccessible by larger ships. Custom stabilising technology enables the Discovery Yacht to navigate rough seas in comfort for guests, while GPS Dynamic Positioning negates the need to drop anchor on pristine underwater environments.

A Polar Class 6 rating and strengthened hull means Scenic Eclipse can safely visit Arctic and Antarctic regions and access unique locations others cannot, and two on-board Airbus H130-T2 helicopters and the custom-designed Scenic Neptune submersibles deliver unrivalled excursions above, below and beyond the horizon.

The innovations continue inside. At launch, Scenic Eclipse redefined wellness experiences on cruise ships. From the indulgent 550sqm Senses Spa which features state-of-the-art technology to create a sanctuary for rejuvenation to the dedicated gym and Pilates and yoga studio, Scenic Eclipse instantly stood apart for wellness at sea.

Scenic Eclipse II has built on this solid foundation, further elevating ultra-luxury treatments and wellbeing experiences including the introduction of the state-of-the-art Salt Therapy Lounge and Therabody chairs, now featured on both Discovery Yachts.

The spacious suites have also set new benchmarks in ultra-luxury. From the 32sqm Verandah Suites to the extraordinary Panorama and Owner’s Penthouse Suites, all were thoughtfully crafted with the grandeur and style of a 6-star hotel yet contain innovations and elegant furnishings far beyond that ideal. The concept of the luxurious floating haven – an ultimate indulgent retreat on a voyage of discovery – has been stunningly realised on board both Discovery Yachts.

Culinary Excellence

A World of Wonder

Over the last five years, the World’s First Discovery Yachts have ventured to more than 350 extraordinary destinations across all seven continents.

From the stunning coastlines of the Americas to the breathtaking scenery of the Arctic regions, the idyllic South Pacific islands and the historic regions of the Mediterranean, the reach of Scenic Eclipse is unique.

“Scenic Eclipse is just as at home moored alongside superyachts in Monaco as she is breaking ice less than 900 kilometres from the true North Pole. She is truly a ship for all regions and seasons,” Griffiths says.

And then there’s Antarctica. Scenic has defined ultra-luxury discovery voyages in the seventh continent. All-inclusive Discovery Excursions by Zodiac, kayak, and stand-up paddleboards to enjoy penguin, whale and seal sightings, flyovers of the staggering McMurdo Dry Valleys and submersible dives beneath the seas of South Georgia are just some of the experiences offered on a Scenic Eclipse Expedition Voyage.

“We’re the pioneers in polar exploration. The itineraries we’ve developed in Antarctica and the Arctic region are very conducive to discovery and exploration.” 

Jason Flesher, Director of Discovery Operations

The Future of Discovery

The five-year journey of Scenic Eclipse was celebrated in April 2024, when the Discovery Yacht paid its first-ever visit to Australia, where Scenic was founded in 1986. With new destinations on the horizon, including East Antarctica and the Ross Sea, the Baltics and the majestic rivers of Europe and the Americas, the Scenic team is committed to making the next five years and beyond even greater.

“A Scenic Eclipse voyage means wonder in all aspects,” Senior Captain le Rouzic says. “It can be looking at what the planet has to offer, curiosity about our exceptional culinary experiences, meeting other guests and even meeting the crew.”

The success of Scenic Eclipse’s first half-decade has also inspired Scenic Group to expand its sister brand Emerald Cruises on the oceans. In March 2022, their groundbreaking luxury yacht Emerald Azzurra welcomed her first guests, followed by Emerald Sakara a year later and a new super yacht Emerald Kaia on the horizon for 2026. The luxury yachts feature an open-air infinity pool, a wellness deck with a spa and gym, and a marina platform with a variety of water toys.

Emerald Kaia floats gracefully on the calm water, reflecting the serene surroundings.

For Claudius Docekal, VP Ocean Deployment, Scenic Eclipse represents a significant achievement.

“We’re extremely proud of Scenic Eclipse which, along with our dedicated expert crew and handcrafted itineraries, will continue to take our guests to places few others can reach,” he says.

“This is what truly sets us apart.”

In just five short years, Scenic has redefined ocean cruising into a realm of ultra-luxury Discovery Yacht voyages. With voyages through to 2027 available, now is the time to book and experience the Scenic difference for yourself.

Scenic Eclipse Celebrates 5 Years of Discovery, Innovation and Luxury

September 2024 marks a milestone moment for Scenic Group as it celebrates the fifth anniversary of Scenic Eclipse , the pioneering ultra-luxury, Discovery Yacht™.

The celebrations coincide with the christening of Scenic Eclipse by Dame Helen Mirren on September 10, 2019, in New York City. One month earlier, in August 2019, Scenic Eclipse set sail from Reykjavik, embarking on its first official voyage as one of the most innovative and luxurious ships of its time. Offering a truly all-inclusive, six-star experience, Scenic Eclipse combines cutting-edge technology and world-class design to ensure seamless navigation around the world’s most remote locations that few will ever visit. On board, guests can make the most of the sophisticated spaces designed for unwinding, including the indulgent 5,920 sqft Senses Spa, dedicated gym, Pilates and yoga studio before enjoying unparalleled culinary flavors at one of up to 10 on board dining experiences .

The launch of Scenic Eclipse II in March 2023 further elevated the standard of ultra-luxury cruising, with enhancements including an expanded Senses Spa, a reimagined Sky Deck with private cabanas, a Sky Bar, and a Vitality pool. Scenic has also expanded its portfolio with new destinations in the Oceania region and sister brand Emerald Cruises’ launch of Emerald Azzurra and Emerald Sakara , with work underway on Emerald Kaia , scheduled to set sail in April 2026.

“Since the debut of Scenic Eclipse in 2019, we have set the benchmark in ultra-luxury ocean cruising.

Reflecting on Five Years of Scenic Eclipse's Pioneering Achievements

  • Commitment to Innovation: Over the last five years, Scenic Eclipse has set new standards for ultra-luxury cruising, with its cutting-edge technology, on-board helicopters, custom-built submarine, and nearly 1:1 staff-to-guest ratio accommodating 228 guests (200 in polar regions)

  • Wildlife Wonders: In November 2023, Scenic Eclipse completed its first helicopter landing on Antarctica’s Snow Hill Island, offering guests the rare chance to witness over 4,000 breeding pairs of Emperor penguins.

Since its launch in 2019, Scenic Eclipse has transformed small-ship expedition cruising with unique itineraries in remote locations, ranging from Antarctica to the Mediterranean, while focusing on enhancing the guest experience.

“Since the debut of Scenic Eclipse in 2019, we have set the benchmark in ultra-luxury ocean cruising. Our teams at MKM Yachts and dedicated crew take great pride in the continuous innovation and unrivaled experiences we’ve delivered over the past five years,” said Glen Moroney, Founder and Chairman of Scenic Group. “We are committed to establishing luxury yachts as a major growth category in ocean cruising, which extends to our expansion with Emerald Cruises and the upcoming Emerald Kaia.”

The anniversary celebrations coincide with Dame Helen Mirren’s christening of Scenic Eclipse on September 10, 2019, in New York City. Just a month prior, in August 2019, Scenic Eclipse embarked on its inaugural voyage from Reykjavik as one of the most advanced and luxurious ships of its time.

This six-star experience features advanced technology and elegant design for navigating remote locations. It includes a 5,920 sqft spa, gym, yoga studio, and dining across ten venues.

The launch of Scenic Eclipse II in March 2023 further elevated the standards of ultra-luxury cruising, showcasing an expanded Senses Spa, a redesigned Sky Deck with private cabanas, a Sky Bar, and a Vitality pool. Scenic has also introduced new destinations in Oceania and expanded its sister brand Emerald Cruises with the launches of Emerald Azzurra and Emerald Sakara, with Emerald Kaia scheduled to set sail in April 2026.

Five Years of Scenic Eclipse ‘s Achievements

Commitment to Innovation: Scenic Eclipse has redefined ultra-luxury cruising with advanced technology, onboard helicopters, a custom-built submersible, and a nearly 1:1 staff-to-guest ratio for 228 guests (200 in polar regions).

Scenic Neptune I & II: The Discovery Yachts feature submersibles that dive up to 328 feet, offering an immersive underwater experience and marking the first submersible dive in South Georgia in 40 years.

Wildlife Wonders: In November 2023, Scenic Eclipse made its inaugural helicopter landing on Antarctica’s Snow Hill Island, where guests could see over 4,000 breeding pairs of Emperor penguins.

New Adventures & What’s to Come

Exclusive Monaco Grand Prix Itineraries for 2025 & 2026: Scenic Eclipse will offer exclusive Grand Prix viewing packages from Nice on May 20, 2025, with limited cabins still available.

New Scenic Ocean Itineraries for 2025: Scenic’s 2025 ocean itineraries feature a 13-day journey through Ireland and Scotland, a 16-day adventure in Indonesia, and a 20-day voyage from Rio de Janeiro to the Spanish Riviera, with 2-for-1 fares and free air on select departures.

On the Horizon: The Future of Scenic Group: Scenic Eclipse II will expand to Asia and East Antarctica in December 2024 , and  Emerald Kaia will debut  in 2026.

Scenic continues to innovate, providing exclusive itineraries and adventures for travelers.

  • Scenic Group celebra 5 anos de seu iate de expedição Scenic Eclipse

Desde a estreia em 2019, embarcação vem oferecendo aos hóspedes itinerários de classe mundial

O Scenic Group está celebrando, agora em setembro, o quinto aniversário do Scenic Eclipse, seu iate de expedição de ultraluxo. Desde a estreia em 2019, a embarcação redefiniu os cruzeiros de expedição em navios pequenos, oferecendo aos hóspedes itinerários de classe mundial, das paisagens geladas da Antártida às costas ensolaradas do Mediterrâneo.

As comemorações coincidem com o batismo do Scenic Eclipse pela atriz Helen Mirren em 10 de setembro de 2019, em Nova York. Um mês antes, em agosto do mesmo ano, o navio zarpou de Reykjavík, na Islândia, embarcando em sua primeira viagem oficial. Oferecendo uma experiência all-inclusive de seis estrelas, o Scenic Eclipse combina tecnologia de ponta e design de classe mundial. A bordo, os hóspedes podem aproveitar os espaços projetados para relaxar, incluindo o Senses Spa de 5.920 pés quadrados, academia, estúdio de Pilates e ioga, antes de desfrutar em uma das dez experiências gastronômicas a bordo.

O lançamento do Scenic Eclipse II em março de 2023 elevou o padrão de cruzeiros de ultraluxo, com melhorias incluindo um Senses Spa expandido, um Sky Deck reinventado com cabanas privativas, um Sky Bar e uma piscina Vitality. A Scenic também expandiu seu portfólio com novos destinos na região da Oceania e o lançamento da marca irmã Emerald Cruises do Emerald Azzurra e do Emerald Sakara, com o trabalho em andamento no Emerald Kaia, programado para zarpar em abril de 2026.

“Desde a estreia do Scenic Eclipse em 2019, estabelecemos a referência em cruzeiros oceânicos de ultraluxo. Nossas equipes na MKM Yachts e a tripulação dedicada têm muito orgulho da inovação e das experiências que entregamos nos últimos cinco anos. Estamos comprometidos em estabelecer iates de luxo como uma grande categoria de crescimento em cruzeiros oceânicos, o que se estende à nossa expansão com a Emerald Cruises e o próximo Emerald Kaia", diz o fundador e presidente do Scenic Group, Glen Moroney.

Scenic Eclipse I e II

Cinco anos de conquistas do Scenic Eclipse

  • Compromisso com a inovação : nos últimos cinco anos, o Scenic Eclipse estabeleceu novos padrões para cruzeiros de ultraluxo, com sua tecnologia de ponta, helicópteros a bordo, submarino personalizado e uma proporção de quase 1:1 entre funcionários e hóspedes, acomodando 228 hóspedes (200 em regiões polares);
  • Scenic Neptune I e II : os Discovery Yachts da Scenic apresentam submersíveis personalizados, Scenic Neptune e Scenic Neptune II. Esses submersíveis mergulham até 328 pés abaixo da superfície, oferecendo uma experiência subaquática imersiva de 360 graus. Em 2022, a Scenic se tornou a primeira operadora a conduzir mergulhos submersíveis em águas da Geórgia do Sul em 40 anos e concluiu o primeiro mergulho noturno submersível comercial do mundo no México;
  • Maravilhas da vida selvagem : em novembro de 2023, o Scenic Eclipse concluiu seu primeiro pouso de helicóptero na Ilha Snow Hill da Antártida, oferecendo aos hóspedes a chance de testemunhar mais de 4 mil pares reprodutores de pinguins-imperadores. Esta experiência estará disponível novamente na viagem de 22 dias pela Antártida, Geórgia do Sul e Ilhas Malvinas, partindo em 27 de novembro de 2024.

Vuelven los cruceros a Avilés: en junio atracará un megayate de lujo con 228 pasajeros a bordo

El "scenic eclipse", que suma 176 de tripulantes, hará al menos dos escalas más en la ciudad, en mayo y julio de 2026.

Nueva visita de los catamaranes eléctricos de Gondán. Los catamaranes eléctricos de Gondán diseñados como ferris de pasaje para la empresa portuguesa Transtejo, para transporte público regular en el río Tajo en la zona de Lisboa, continúan en pruebas estos días en la ría de Avilés.

Avilés recupera los cruceros. El próximo 15 de junio el barco "Scenic Eclipse", un megayate de lujo para 228 pasajeros y 176 tripulantes, está previsto que haga parada en Avilés dentro de un circuito que conectará Lisboa (Portugal) con Reykjavik (Islandia) en 24 días. Avilés será la tercera escala para los cruceristas, después de Ferrol. De Avilés, el crucero de superlujo partirá hacia Bilbao. El precio por persona –en habitación tipo suite– de este crucero completo supera los 50.000 euros.

El mismo buque recalará en Avilés previsiblemente en mayo y junio de 2026: el 15 de mayo será escala en el viaje Lisboa-Escocia y el 17 de julio en un Atenas-Burdeos. El "Scenic Eclipse" está considerado el primer "discovery yachts" o barco de exploración con todo incluido del mundo: con suites de ultralujo, spa, restaurantes, helicópteros, submarinos y zodiacs para mayor comodidad y una experiencia de ultralujo seis estrellas, según la ficha técnica que consta en páginas especializadas como "Un mundo de cruceros".

El último crucero que visitó Avilés fue el "Hanseatic Spirit", el tercero de tres barcos también de ultra lujo construido para la naviera alemana Hapag-Lloyd Cruises. Entonces era mayo de 2022. Desde entonces el Puerto de Avilés no ha vuelto a recibir a cruceristas, en parte por el importante parón de actividad que supuso la pandemia .

El «Scenic Elicpse» en la Antártida. | scenic.eu

El "Scenic Elicpse" en la Antártida. / scenic.eu

El primer barco con pasajeros que entró en la ría de Avilés fue en 2012. Aquel día 2 de mayo el puerto local entró a formar parte de las rutas turísticas en el sector de los cruceros con una escala que años atrás muchos veían un sueño inalcanzable. El "Braemar", de la naviera Fred Olsen, surcó una ría que en los años noventa del siglo pasado era un lodazal y amarró ante el Centro Niemeyer, a cinco minutos a pie del casco histórico de Avilés.

Desde entonces y hasta 2022, el puerto local ha registrado una treintena de escalas de nueve buques en los que viajaron 20.337 turistas. Los últimos que pisaron suelo avilesino fueron los del "Hanseatic Spirit", mayoritariamente alemanes. El resto viajaban a bordo del "Braemar", "Balmoral", "Discovery", "Black Watch", "Boudicca", "Sea Claude II", "Europa", "Saga Pearl II" y "Crystal Endeavor".

Ahora, de cumplirse las previsiones que anuncia en su web el "Scenic Eclipse", Avilés volverá a ganar cruceristas. Los primeros podrían llegar a la ciudad el 15 de junio a bordo del megayate de lujo que tiene 168 metros de largo y navega a 17 nudos de velocidad.
