SH Vega: Ship Details and Overview


Photo of SH Vega

The SH Vega was constructed in 2022 and was purpose built for expedition cruising in polar regions. Her sleek design, ice-strengthened hull and extra large stabilisers is a testament to this

With it's scandinavian-inspired interior, the SH Vega is designed to accommodate a small number of passengers in laid back luxury atmosphere, prioritising an intimate and immersive experience.

The SH Vega comes with everything you would expect from a high class vessel. There is a state-of-the-art lecture theatre, well-stocked bar, excellent polar library, good-sized cabins, infinity pool, jacuzzi, sauna, and a unique crow nest style lookout point from the front of the ship.

On-Board Facilities

Public Area Facilities

The SH Vega has been designed with comfort at its heart. The informal feel works incredibly well with the hygge-style interiors. 

Because the SH Vega only takes 158 passengers, there is an intimate feeling onboard and it never feels crowded. Wildlife watching is the priority for the team and there is the amazing 'Swan's Nest' viewing point at the bow of the ship. On top of this there is plenty of deck space to stretch your legs. 

This high level ship comes with an infinity pool, polar library, bar, lecture theatre, secluded jacuzzi, a sauna with a view and a beautiful observation lounge where you can have a drink and take i the world passing by. 

Cabin Facilities

Like the public facilities, the cabin facilities onboard the SH Vega are well thought out and well proportioned. 

The cabins onboard are split between State Rooms with private balconies or cabins with large, panoramic windows. 

Every cabin comes with a sofa and desk, flat screen TV, private bathroom and good-sized wardrobe.
