Ocean Nova, a 76-passenger expedition ship operating in Antarctica, is being used for a series of Peninsula and Antarctic Circle voyages during the 2026-27 season. Its relatively small capacity is geared toward travelers who want more time off the ship, with itineraries built around Zodiac cruising, shore landings and other expedition activities.
The published schedule highlights three voyages ranging from 11 to 14 days, with departures from late November 2026 through February 2027. Routes include the Antarctic Peninsula and, on the longest itinerary, a crossing of the Antarctic Circle.
