From Timaru to Timaru · South America & Antarctica · 23 nights
Launched in 2023, Scenic Eclipse II is Scenic’s second discovery yacht, bringing an almost identical design with some key enhancements.
Scenic’s second ocean ship builds on the technological advances
of the original Scenic Eclipse, and features a new sun deck pool
and a larger submarine. As on board Scenic Eclipse, you can expect
spacious suites, a fantastic range of dining options, and an
indulgent spa.
Antarctica is the world’s last great wilderness, an alien landscape of snow-covered mountains, jagged icebergs and extraordinary wildlife. December is the most popular month to visit, with temperatures at their warmest (by Antarctic standards), long hours of daylight (great for photographers), and wildlife active everywhere.
Situated halfway between Christchurch and Dunedin on the east coast of the South Island, the pleasant town of Timaru has a well-preserved Edwardian centre, some interesting museums and galleries, a good range of shops and a nice coastal park along Caroline Bay.
