Detailed answer
Scenic Eclipse II was built at the 3. Maj shipyard in Rijeka, Croatia, for Scenic Group's own shipbuilder, MKM Yachts, and delivered in April 2023. Scenic gives a gross tonnage of 17,545 and a length of 168 metres, and the ship is built to Polar Class 6. It carries 228 guests in 114 suites, or 200 in Antarctica, with close to one crew member per guest and butler service in every suite. It carries two helicopters and the Scenic Neptune II submersible, both at extra cost, along with the Senses Spa, a pool on the Sky Deck and up to ten places to eat. From 2028 the ship is due to be based in Australia and Asia-Pacific, when Scenic's new Scenic Ikon joins the fleet.
How busy will town be?
The upcoming visits listed on this page show the passengers expected on each call and any other ships in port the same day. Town is busiest when several ships are in at once or a large ship arrives at a weekend. A ship carrying a few hundred passengers makes little difference on its own.
Can you sail on it from nearby?
Yes, from Malaga. Scenic's Costa del Sol to the Canary Islands voyage leaves Malaga on Monday 27 September 2027 and calls at Gibraltar the next day, Tuesday 28 September 2027. It continues to Tangier, then after a day at sea to Porto Santo and Funchal in Madeira, ending in Santa Cruz de Tenerife on Monday 4 October 2027. Scenic voyages include drinks, excursions, Wi-Fi and gratuities in the fare, and are sold directly and through travel advisors.
