Scenic Discovery Yachts Reveal the Chilean Fjords of Patagonia in Ultra-Luxury

Discover the Chilean Fjords of Patagonia with Scenic Eclipse

Scenic Discovery Yachts will operate a series of unique ocean discovery voyages through Chile and Patagonia’s remote fjords in 2027, providing guests with helicopter flightseeing^{^}, submersible^{^} dives and expert-led Zodiac exploration in one of the world’s most unique and undiscovered coastlines.

While Antarctica may dominate travel lists, another wilderness is quietly emerging among experienced luxury travellers. Scenic Eclipse opens up one of the world’s least visited coastlines, creating a four-dimensional experience by helicopter^{^}, submersible^{^} and expert-led Zodiac excursions, to landscapes few travellers ever see.

Luxury today isn’t about finding somewhere that still has the power to leave you speechless.

The Chilean Fjords of Patagonia remains genuinely under-explored, a landscape of sheer cliffs, hanging glaciers and narrow channels including Puerto Edén and the English Narrows, best reached by a ship with the design and Polar technology to navigate them. Scenic Eclipse has two on board helicopters^{^}, a submersible^{^} and an expert Discovery Team of up to 20 specialists. Guests will also access the all-inclusive Zodiac cruising, kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding experiences in this stunning region.  

On board, guests experience the same level of comfort that has defined Scenic Discovery Yachts since its launch: all-suite accommodation with butler service, eight bars and lounges, more than 100 whiskies, up to ten dining venues with daily changing menus from a culinary team of 38 chefs from 15 nations, and wellness spaces including the 550sqm Senses Spa^#, all with unrivalled inclusions and no surcharge for speciality dining.

While the ancient glaciers are the headline act, the Chilean Fjords reveal many other surprises, including the charming island of Chiloé, where brightly painted houses stand above the water and World Heritage-listed wooden churches tell the story of a unique maritime culture. Out on the water, every day holds the allure of extraordinary wildlife encounters, with humpback and blue whales, Magellanic and Humboldt penguins, sea lions and soaring Andean condors reminding guests they are exploring one of the planet's richest natural ecosystems.

“Luxury today isn’t about finding somewhere that still has the power to leave you speechless,” says Jason Flesher, Scenic Group’s Director of Discovery Operations. “The Chilean Fjords are one of the last great wildernesses on Earth. Here, glaciers the colour of blue crystal tumble into pristine waterways, condors glide between the jagged towering peaks of Patagonia within the Andes and the silence is broken only by the crack of ancient ice, an Andean fox hunting its next meal or the breath of a passing whale. Whether you’re exploring hidden coves by Zodiac or soaring above the fjords by helicopter^{^}, every perspective reveals another extraordinary layer of this remarkable coastline.

“And the best thing is returning to your ultra-luxury suite after a day of discovery and enjoying six-star service, all-inclusive for dining and beverages and learning more about the destination from our expert guides. This is a destination that is exclusive, authentic, largely untouched and with Scenic Discovery Yachts, you will create stories for life.”

Unlike other cruise companies, Scenic controls every stage of the guest experience by designing, building, owning and operating its own fleet of luxury ships across yacht cruising, river cruising as well as seamless connections to luxury land journeys. This unique level of ownership translates into something travellers genuinely notice, with seamless journeys, consistently exceptional service, and thoughtfully curated experiences that take guests into the heart of each destination.

There are only a limited number of expedition voyages into this region during the 2027 season, a deliberately special offering that reflects both the remoteness of the destination and the intimacy of the experience Scenic has built around it.
