The expedition ship Ocean Nova (sister ship to M/S Quest) was built in Denmark in 1992 and underwent a complete refurbishment in 2006. This small and comfortable expedition ship takes up to 78 passengers in twin and triple cabins, all with exterior views and en suite facilities. All cabins also have a desk with a chair and ample storage space for clothes and equipment. 

In the dining room, you'll enjoy delicious meals and in the panorama lounge, you can enjoy a drink with breath-taking views of the surrounding polar landscape. This is where your guides entertain and educate you with lectures on the area’s flora, fauna and history.

Onboard there is also a library with a collection of polar books and DVDs. Passengers are welcome on the bridge around the clock and there is always something to see or search for from the spacious observation decks. The atmosphere onboard Ocean Nova is relaxed and very friendly. Travelling on board this small expedition ship offers a unique experience and perspective than more conventional traditional ships.
