Scenic Eclipse return to screens ahead of 5th anniversary celebrations, on ‘Maritime Masters: Expedition Antarctica’

‘Maritime Masters: Expedition Antarctica’ is returning to UK TV screens and airing on Quest on 24th August, at 11pm. The series showcases life on board Scenic Eclipse, The World’s First Discovery Yacht™ and documents the art of expedition cruising to some of the world’s most remote regions; the series will air for five weeks, showing two episodes per week.

Guests on board enjoy world-class service and expert insights from Scenic's onboard Discovery Team, 10 dining options as part of the truly all-inclusive experience and the opportunity to experience two helicopters and a state-of-the-art submersible on the yacht – a unique offering in the cruise market.

With a maximum of 200 guests onboard in Antarctica, the series which aired first in 2023, offers cruise connoisseurs an intimate behind-the-scenes look at the benchmark in ultra-luxury and expedition cruising. Highlights include watching the first-ever submarine night dive in Huatulco, Mexico, getting up close and personal with some friendly penguins in Antarctica and witnessing a flight over the vast Pio Xi Glacier in the Chilean Fjords.

‘Maritime Masters: Expedition Antarctica’ airs a month before 5th anniversary celebrations begin for Scenic Eclipse and highlights the market appetite for expedition cruising in what has been a record-breaking sales year for Antarctica, for Scenic. Scenic has recently launched their biggest itinerary collection with a commitment to more time sailing in Antarctica in the 2025/2026 & 2026/2027 seasons, and also re-introduced Chilean Fjords sailings to the portfolio.
