The Scenic Eclipse made history with the first submersible dive on South Georgia Islands in 40 years — since the 1982 Falklands War.

On Jan. 31, Scenic Eclipse’s six-guest submarine, Scenic Neptune, took guests on an underwater exploration in Stomness, South Georgia.

The historic moment — which aimed to increase guest knowledge and awareness of the region’s delicate eco-system — took place during the 20-day Antarctica, South Georgia & Falkland Islands voyage, which departed Ushuaia, Argentina on Jan. 17, 2022.

Scenic is the first commercial operator to be granted permission to dive submersibles on the islands after working closely with the authorities.

The next submarine dive in South Georgia Island will take place on the March 10, 2022 voyage with an offer of free business class air and 20% savings if paid in full at time of booking.

Other 2022/2023 Antarctica itineraries offer additional savings.

The 2023/24 season brings even more opportunities as the company will have both Discovery Yachts, Eclipse I and II, in Antarctica, and will also be offering Fly and Cruise options.

Guests booking sailings on a 2023/24 Antarctica season cruise can save up to 20% on selected suites when paying for their cruise in full 12 months prior to departure plus up to CDN$1,500 flight credit.
