Meet ARCTIC — the World's Largest Explorer Yacht. An 88m icon that changed the game in luxury exploration.

ARCTIC is an 88-metre icon with a story unlike any other. Originally launched in 1969 as an ice-class salvage tug, she was transformed by Australian billionaire Kerry Packer into the world’s first true luxury expedition yacht. Re-launching in 1994 as the largest converted explorer yacht of her time, ARCTIC set a new standard for adventure cruising, capable of reaching the planet’s most remote destinations while delivering five-star comfort along the way.

Legendary Heritage, Reimagined Her conversion preserved her industrial-strength build, complete with an ice-class hull, while introducing expansive living areas, elegant interiors, and high-end finishes. The result is a yacht that effortlessly blends history, luxury, and rugged capability.

Unmatched Global Cruising Range With proven performance across every ocean, ARCTIC is designed to go where others can’t. Her long-range autonomy makes her ideal for once-in-a-lifetime adventures in places like Antarctica, Norway, Papua New Guinea, and the Pacific Islands.

Expansive Entertainment & Wellness Spaces ARCTIC’s vast deck areas are among the largest of any charter yacht, with multiple expansive zones that can be tailored for events, relaxation, or adventure. The heli-deck doubles as a flexible space for everything from outdoor dining and yoga to cocktail parties or dance floors under the stars. Across all decks, modular furnishings and generous proportions create endless possibilities for entertaining or unwinding in total privacy. Inside, guests enjoy a private 4D cinema, massage and wellness suite, gym, pool, Jacuzzi, and a range of indoor and outdoor lounges designed for pure comfort.

Unmatched Tender, Toys & Expedition Setup With the largest fleet of tenders in the charter market and an extensive collection of toys:jet skis, kayaks, dive gear, helipad, and space for ROVs or submersibles, ARCTIC is built for explorers at heart. Every experience is guided by a seasoned expedition crew.

Proven Pedigree Having cruised privately across the globe for decades, ARCTIC now brings her legacy to the charter market. Her experienced, long-standing crew (many of whom have been aboard for over a decade, with some heads of department reaching 30+ years), consistently delivers world-class service and unforgettable guest experiences.
