Learn Something new

Lots of our guests like to use their sea days or longer voyages to try their hand at something they haven't done before, so we host sociable activities like learning to play the ukulele, learning to dance or singing in a choir.

On Borealis and Bolette we have a purpose built beautiful studio space dedicated to art, and to craft. It’s fully equipped with easels and art materials and the light is absolutely beautiful. Here you can take part in painting and drawing classes as well as learn new crafts like block-printing.

Food and drink lovers can learn more about the tastes of the region they are visiting in one of our tasting sessions.

Spa & Wellness

There’s a really beautiful spa on board all three ships and it is very difficult to think of anything more relaxing than the experience we provide there. Floor to ceiling windows mean there are wonderful views to enjoy as you are pampered. Sit back and watch the wide skies and blue waters glide by as you’re looked after by our team of specialist beauticians, hairdressers and beauty therapists.

Our Fitness Centres have some of the most spectacular views of any gym anywhere! On all three ships, they are located in incredible positions that mean whatever you are doing you are looking out at the sea and the sky beyond. There really is no more uplifting place to do a yoga or pilates class or a small group workout session.

We have swimming pools and Jacuzzis on board every ship for those who like to relax and unwind. And our retractable roofs on Bolette and Borealis mean you can enjoy a swim in any weather.
