Scenic Eclipse II, an ultra-luxurious polar cruiser, is operated by the Scenic Group – a leading global tour operator for luxury river and ocean travel. She is a sister ship of the awarded Scenic Eclipse, the first ocean faring vessel and the flagship of the Scenic Group. The Vessel was built in 2023 at the MKM Yachts Shipyard in Rijeka, Croatia. Scenic Eclipse II was formally named by NASA astronaut Kathryn Sullivan in Malaga on June 03, 2023.
