Designed to provide an unrivalled level of luxury yet immersive global exploration, Scenic Eclipse has it all.
Scenic have gone all out to create the most luxurious, most
technologically advanced and most exciting expedition ship ever

this ship represented when she launched in 2019, offering
enhancements to already thrilling itineraries.
Nassau, the lively Bahamian capital, is home to duty free shopping, a burgeoning restaurant scene and elegant, pink-hued Georgian architecture. There are some interesting museums where you can learn about the pirates and slave traders of yesteryear, and the surrounding coastline boasts some truly stunning beaches.
Staniel Cay is part of the Exuma Cays, a collection of dazzling white sand islands where the jetset come to escape the outside world. Just next to Staniel Cay is the uninhabited Big Major Cay, home to the famous swimming pigs, who love to paddle in the crystal clear waters.
Grand Turk is the capital of the Turks and Caicos, a collection of sleepy and spectacularly beautiful coral islands to the east of the Bahamas. The pristine white sands and turquoise waters are the main attraction, and the extensive barrier reef makes this a popular destination for divers in the know.
Gustavia is the chic and petite capital of Saint Barths, a tiny French Caribbean island that’s renowned as a haunt of the rich and the famous. You can certainly live well here if you’ve got the means, with an array of gourmet restaurants and luxury boutiques aimed squarely at the A-list. The beautiful beaches, on the other hand, are free and open to all.
The tiny island of Canouan is fringed by gorgeous white sand beaches and crystalline turquoise lagoons, with superb diving and snorkelling amongst the coral reefs just offshore. Just 1,200 people live on the island, and the east coast is home to the exclusive Mandarin Oriental resort.
There’s more to Barbados than just beaches; the delightful architecture of the old garrison in Bridgetown, the capital, is fully deserving of its UNESCO World Heritage status, and the island interior is littered with old sugar plantations and natural wonders such as Harrison’s Cave.
