M/v Sea Spirit video tour - Poseidon Expeditions polar cruise ship

Still think polar expedition cruises are a feat of endurance and a battle with the severe nature forces? That may have been true for the brave polar pioneers... But with Poseidon Expeditions' expedition ship m/v Sea Spirit, the far-away Arctic and Antarctica become accessible for traveling in style and comfort.

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. It is a high-class luxury expedition ship, spacious enough to comfortably accommodate 114 passengers, yet petite enough to maneuver into the tucked-away harbors and landing sites. You get the best of both worlds!

The vessel has an ice-strengthened hull, a fleet of Zodiacs, and a set of retractable fin stabilizers for smoother sailing. Watch the video for a tour of the accommodations on board.

Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here:

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small printing business from the spare bedroom of our apartment. We discovered the world of “travel hacking” & became obsessed. So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world. Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went home to “normal life.” We started this travel vlog to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with this lifestyle and did everything we could to keep going. 4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time. Van life was a major adjustment and so different than flying every week like we were used to, but we are incredibly thankful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. ????????????

Expedition Cruises to Antarctica with Poseidon Expeditions

This new video by Poseidon Expeditions takes you to magical land of Antarctica and shows life aboard our expedition vessel Sea Explorer. Watch to make sure that cruise days are filled with new experiences and emotions that later turn to some of the best memories ever made.

We are immersed in the incredible polar nature: crystal-clear waters pierced with giant icebergs, whales swimming in the vicinity of our expedition crafts, and the pelagic birds hovering above in the sky. This wouldn't be complete without the symbol of Antarctica - the penguins. South Georgia shelters thousands of them.

The polar regions may seem remote and inhospitable, but that is not the case for Poseidon Expeditions. We will take you to Antarctica in grand style. The video showcases the spacious accommodations of the Sea Explorer, and leisure areas like the restaurant, the library, open decks and the presentation lounge.

North Pole: Polar bears and cubs with Poseidon Expeditions

To see a polar bear in the wild is at the top of many people’s must-do lists. Svalbard and Franz Josef Land are two of the very best places to find polar bears in their natural habitat. In these High Arctic territories, polar bears can be seen engaging in natural behaviors such as stalking seals on sea ice, caring for their cubs, roaming across the vast tundra wilderness, and perhaps devouring a whale or walrus carcass. Remarkably close viewing can sometimes be had from the ship or on a Zodiac cruise. However, close encounters with polar bears on land must certainly be avoided. Polar bear safety will be paramount on your cruise to Svalbard or Franz Josef Land.
