Luxury Expedition Cruise Ship

The 42 metre (140 feet) 'Island Passage' is unique in that other vessels of her size carry more than double the 20 passengers that she can accommodate.

This gives our passengers much more room to relax. She is also licensed for 200-day passengers.

We want to make your stay as comfortable as possible onboard the 'Island Passage'. So if you have any special request for an item or service that is not immediately available, we will do everything within our means to get it for you.

Amenities

Our vessel has all the amenities that you would expect of a much larger cruise ship, including:

• Main Dining Room
• Large Saloon Lounge
• Sundeck and BBQ
• Helicopter carried onboard
• Expedition boats carried on-board
• Phone and Fax facilities
• Satellite TV
• Security safe
• Fully stocked cocktail bar and Wine cellar
• Air Conditioning
• Library including videos and books

We carry three expedition boats onboard. Designed for expedition work, these large and heavy-duty craft are extremely safe. The design permits these crafts to land directly onto the beaches.  We also carry 3 smaller tenders for use by passengers to explore areas away from the ship. There are also kayaks carried on board.

Crew

The 'Island Passage' operates with a crew of up to 8 and is registered as a New Zealand vessel under NZ Safe Ship Management. She has a tonnage of 496 GRT.
