SH Diana is Swan Hellenic’s larger and more premium expedition ship, carrying 192 guests in 96 all-suite accommodations with PC6 polar class certification. Launched in 2022, Diana represents Swan Hellenic’s vision of what expedition travel should be: intellectually deep, environmentally responsible, and delivered with a level of refined comfort that makes 18 days at sea genuinely enjoyable rather than merely endurable.
The ship’s design prioritizes discovery — an expansive aft deck and panoramic observation areas give guests maximum connection to the environment, while the onboard enrichment program features scholars, scientists, and cultural specialists whose expertise transforms every destination from a landscape into a story. Swan Hellenic is particularly strong on cultural and archaeological contexts alongside the wildlife focus that characterizes most expedition operators. The “Mudroom” — a dedicated expedition preparation space at sea level — facilitates fast, organized Zodiac deployment and return.
SH Diana sails Antarctica, the Arctic, and a broad range of cultural coastal routes globally. For travelers who want a serious expedition program paired with genuinely comfortable (rather than flashy) accommodations and a focus on understanding the places they visit, Diana represents one of the most compelling expedition ships currently in service.
