About M/v Sea Spirit
Like some of the birds we see in the Arctic and Antarctica, our m/v Sea Spirit is migratory and follows the sun, northbound in the summer and southbound in the winter, always ready for spontaneous discoveries — a pod of whales, a family of polar bears or a glaciated mountain vista. She is highly maneuverable and capable of navigating the narrow fjords of East Greenland and entering the small bays of Spitsbergen. In 2017, she was renovated to offer a unique mixture of adventure and comfort for our sophisticated travelers.
Sea Spirit has been retrofitted with Rolls Royce Zero Speed Stabilizers that allow safe, stable navigation through icy waters. The operational benefits of the new retractable fin stabilizers include reducing the ship's roll when anchored, moored, or drifting, reducing dynamic drag when deployed while underway, and eliminating vibration and noise.
Onboard, we create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere for all our guests. They are united by one goal — to have a memorable wilderness experience and to become real polar adventurers. We believe that first-hand travel to such places makes one an ambassador for conservation, and helps strengthen our resolve to protect these natural environments for future generations.

Antarctica Cruises
What to Expect
M/v Sea Spirit: The Sea Spirit’s ice-class hull, maneuverability and small size allow her to pursue itineraries not possible aboard conventional cruise company vessels. She boasts state-of-the-art navigation equipment, motion stabilizers as well as a long list of passenger amenities.
Zodiac Adventures: To fully immerse our guests in the experience and take advantage of the many opportunities to view wildlife ashore, we utilize a fleet of inflatable Zodiac landing craft that can be deployed quickly from the back of the ship. We usually attempt several landings per day, permitting you maximum exposure to the many wildlife species and huge penguin colonies.

What to Expect
From the Highlands to the High Arctic: Venture from Edinburgh, Scotland to Jan Mayen — a remote volcanic island few travelers ever have a chance to visit. Continue to the archipelago of Svalbard, in search of polar bears, marine mammals and other wildlife.
Arctic Odyssey: Begin your voyage on the archipelago of Svalbard and finish in historic Reykjavik, Iceland. Visit the untouched Northeast Greenland National Park, spot musk ox, reindeer and Arctic fox, and take in some of the world’s most remote natural scenery on this Arctic cruise.
Arctic Sights and Northern Lights: One of Mother Nature’s best presentations, the Northern Lights, is a reason many travelers long to visit the Arctic. These September cruise begin and end in Reykjavik, Iceland. Each clear night presents an opportunity to see the legendary Aurora Borealis.

Whether it be a pod of whales greeting the ship, or a polar bear cub playing in the snow, or an iceberg being born from a massive glacier front – both the Arctic and Antarctica hold a wealth of pristine natural wonders. And if you are celebrating an anniversary, looking to elope or want to make a milestone birthday even more special, we at Poseidon Expeditions would love to help make it an occasion to remember.
Wedding
If you’re looking for an ultimate romantic escape or the most unusual place to get married, you might consider the polar regions as your wedding destination. An expedition cruise to the Arctic, Antarctica will have your honeymoon plans covered as well. Opt for a wedding ceremony in the polar wilderness, and the rest of your voyage will become a fantastic holiday to start off your married life.
The perfect location
You won’t need to spend hours choosing the perfect location – there is no better backdrop for a wedding than dramatic mountain peaks, icy castles of icebergs and glaciers, sparkling white landscapes and magical snow.
Your guestlist is taken care of
If you are getting married in Antarctica, most of the guests attending will be dressed for the occasion in their fines black-and-white attire: the curious penguins won’t miss a chance to witness your special moment. Up in the Arctic, a polar bear cub might make an appearance at the top of the hill to observe from afar.
Dress code - formal or expedition-style
Getting cold feet is not an option here! You will most likely be sporting a pair of rubber Wellington-style boots, but, weather permitting, the look will be complete with a white dress or black suit. Our signature red Poseidon parka will not only keep you warm during the ceremony but will look perfect on the wedding pictures. After all, red is the color of love!
Wedding party of your dreams
The Sea Spirit is perfectly suited to host a just-married party. Your invited guests, fellow like-minded travelers and our expedition team will share your joy.

Later in the evening, you will have a celebratory meal in our restaurant, and your spacious suite will provide the much-needed comfort and privacy after a long day.
And if you’ve had a traditional ceremony back home before the cruise or maybe even several decades ago, there is still something very special in renewing your vows at a place where they become frozen in time.
Birthday
An unforgettable day in the polar regions
One thing is certain - nature will not be reserved with her gifts! The opportunities are abundant. Imagine camping under the stars in Antarctica, or kayaking near a pod of whales in the Arctic. Going for a hike in the flowering tundra of Svalbard and spotting a polar bear stalking the ice for seals in Greenland.
