In 2019, Scenic introduced the world’s first Discovery Yacht, the 228-guest Scenic Eclipse to be joined by a sister ship
– Scenic Eclipse II.
Discover the wild and rugged network of Scottish islands on the edge of the Atlantic, whist sailing from Bergen to Dublin on Scenic Eclipse, taking in pristine beaches, picturesque harbours, and indigenous wildlife.
Along the way learning about ancient Norse work culture whilst hiking around the cliffs of Sumburgh, then head into Lerwick and discover the treasures of Orkney, including the Ring of Brodgar, Skara Brae, and partake in a local beer tasting. Then there’s a hike through Stornoway’s sheltered harbour in search for medieval castles, Portree’s brightly painted waterfront houses, Gaelic culture, and rugged coastlines with the on-board naturalist.
There’s a photography tour in Tobermory on the Isle of Mull, where you’ll be shown how to capture the beauty of the stunning port; and if dancing is your thing you’ll be immersed in Scottish dance traditions with an exclusive Scottish Ceilidh – then learn the moves from local highland dancers. Should the outdoors be what you’re looking to go in search of wildlife on a guided nature walk of Iona’s beautiful sandy beaches.
Due to its small size and with just 228 passengers on board, Scenic Eclipse allows for access to smaller ports, with exclusive docking right in the heart of its destination.Voted the best luxury ship in the world in 2019, following a successful first season sailing six-star luxury cruises, the all-inclusive discovery yacht – Scenic Eclipse – features two on board state-of-the-art helicopters allowing unrivalled birds-eye views and a six-seater submarine for ultimate sightseeing and uninterrupted marine life viewing.
