With spacious, well-appointed suites, stylish common areas, the MS Island Sky has an ice-strengthened hull, and redundant core technology. This ship represents the height of comfort and style. In 2017, she was upgraded to add tinted sliding glass doors to most cabins bringing Antarctica into your suite and giving easy access to the outer deck. The Owner’s, Penthouse, & Veranda Suites feature private balconies.
The Island Sky is a fantastic platform for exploring Antarctica in comfort and style. It’s not just that she exudes old world charm, she offers you immediate access to Antarctica from the privacy of your suite. There is also a panoramic top deck observation platform, a Library with computers, a bar/lounge with live entertainment and 24/7 Coffee/Tea Station. As an added bonus, polar Latitudes have also upgraded the beverage package on board and all alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks will be included for the entirety of the voyage. You will also go home not only with a trip and photos of a lifetime but also a complimentary expedition jacket.
