RMS St. Helena

A medical clinic with a doctor aboard for every voyage — the reassurance you want when sailing to one of the most remote places on the planet.

Hearty, expedition-style meals with beer, wine, and soda included at lunch and dinner, plus a daily happy hour. No extra upsells — it's all folded into the flat fare.

Generous observation lounges and open decks built for wildlife viewing and big Antarctic panoramas. The social heart of the ship between landings, with sweeping views from the warm side of the glass.

The ship's wellness corner: a spa for post-landing recovery, a gym for sea days, and two Jacuzzis for soaking in the polar air. Earned relaxation after a day on the ice.

A working science laboratory with researchers in residence all season. Guests can join citizen-science projects — real data collection that contributes to Antarctic research while you sail.

On select departures, St. Helena carries the Icebird — a 61-foot custom aluminium sailing yacht (Van de Stadt-designed, ice-strengthened for polar waters) you can board for an optional paid day sail. With a rigid inflatable, kayaks, skis, and dive gear in her aft garage, she brings a handful of guests closer to the ice and wildlife than any Zodiac can. It's an extra-cost add-on, not a standalone voyage.

The flagship cabin — roughly 40 m² on the Boat Deck with a separate sitting area, walk-in closet, king bed, and ensuite. The most private, spacious way to sail St. Helena.

One of the larger cabins aboard, on the Promenade Deck with a king-or-twin setup, window, and ensuite. Extra breathing room for the long sea days between landings.

A Promenade Deck cabin with a king-or-twin configuration, window, and ensuite — more space and a better position on the ship. The category most couples settle on.

A step up in comfort with two proper single beds, a window, and ensuite. The Deck B versions run slightly larger and add a sofa.

The four-berth option — two Pullman bunk setups, a window, and ensuite. The most economical way to get a whole crew to Antarctica under one cabin number.

A roomier window cabin for three, with one Pullman berth plus a single bed and an ensuite. Good value for small groups who'd rather bunk together and bank the savings for the ice.

The entry twin — an efficient window cabin with ensuite and a Pullman berth layout. Some interconnect, making them a smart pick for friends or families sharing.

The solo traveler's dream — a private single cabin with window and ensuite, and Terra Nova charges no single supplement for it, a genuine rarity in expedition cruising. Compact by design, because you'll be ashore or on deck anyway.
