Ocean Victory
About Ocean Victory
The Ocean Victory, launched in 2021, is one of the most modern small expedition vessels at sea. Purpose-built for discovery, it combines comfort, capability, and a deep commitment to sustainability—an ideal platform for our smallship journeys to some of the world’s most remarkable places.

On board, travellers are welcomed into bright cabins, panoramic decks, and inviting spaces designed to spark conversation, laughter, and learning. Shared meals, engaging presentations, and quiet moments of reflection as icebergs drift past create a sense of community and curiosity. The Ocean Victory offers a rare combination of comfort, connection, and environmental care.

Life On Board
Life On Board
Life aboard the Ocean Victory feels like stepping into a welcoming community at sea. With a generous ratio of guests to expedition staff, travellers enjoy connecting with cultural educators, knowledge holders, scientists, naturalists, artists, musicians, and community leaders, whose stories and expertise add depth to every day.
Panoramic decks, bright lecture lounges, a cozy library, and excellent outdoor spaces provide natural gathering places—perfect for sharing discoveries, swapping stories, or reflection. Guests also enjoy hands-on workshops that spark creativity and learning. Accommodation includes ninety-three ocean-view cabins, most with private balconies, plus single-occupancy options for independent travellers. Wi-Fi (basic service included) ensures guests stay connected while immersed in the adventure.
Food On Board
Food On Board
Meals aboard the Ocean Victory are as much about connection as nourishment. Guests enjoy dining in either of two restaurants, or, when weather allows, outdoor barbecues set against spectacular backdrops. Menus pair international favourites with regional flavours, supported by Adventure Canada’s Taste of Place program, sustainable seafood choices, and reduced-carbon meals that keep sustainability central. Complimentary wine, beer, and soft drinks are served with dinner. Between meals, the Nordic Bar offers a welcoming space for drinks and conversation—making the experience a celebration of community, place, and purpose.
From Ship to Shore
From Ship to Shore
Every landing from the Ocean Victory is designed for ease and discovery. A spacious mud room keeps gear organized, while a fleet of eighteen Zodiacs ensures quick, safe access to beaches, coastlines, and wildlife viewing. These versatile crafts bring guests into the heart of the action—whether stepping onto wild shores or cruising past a seabird colony.
With Polar Code 6 and Ice Class 1A certification, the ship navigates icy seas confidently, allowing us to pass through heavier ice and opening access to places few vessels can reach—this should reduce itinerary changes and delayed landings due to ice, a common challenge in Arctic waters.
Responsible Exploration Aboard the Ocean Victory
Responsible Exploration Aboard the Ocean Victory
Aboard the Ocean Victory, adventure is inseparable from responsibility. Every voyage follows three guiding principles: minimize environmental impact, mitigate risks, and maximize the good we do along the way.
Launched in 2021, the Ocean Victory is one of the most environmentally responsible expedition ships afloat. It’s design combines electronically controlled diesel and electric engines to reduce fuel use and emissions, supported by advanced wastewater treatment, dynamic positioning, and efficient energy systems. Sustainability is also built into daily operations, from food and beverage to hotel services.
Together with Adventure Canada’s optional Voyage to Neutral carbon-offset program, the Ocean Victory demonstrates how exploration can be both inspiring and environmentally responsible—charting a path toward a more sustainable future for expedition travel.
