Seabourn pioneered small-ship, ultra-luxury cruising, and continues to represent the pinnacle of that unique style of travel. Our fleet of ultra-luxury ships, comprised of all ocean-front suites, carries between 264 and 600 guests each, brought to life by an award-winning team numbering nearly as many as the guests. Seabourn’s ships attract accomplished people who enjoy traveling well and sharing unforgettable moments and adventures with other interesting, like-minded people. A great many of them have found Seabourn to be their preferred method of travel and return regularly to sail with us again and again. 

Seabourn has been reinventing small-ship ultra-luxury cruising for over 35 years. In 1986, a small group of luxury hospitality and cruising executives embarked with a goal to provide the relaxed elegance previously available only to owners of the world’s most fabulous private yachts.

Our fleet’s first three ships: Seabourn Pride, entered service in 1988, Seabourn Spirit entered service in 1989, followed by Seabourn Legend in 1991. Over the next two decades, these three ships built an extraordinary legacy of personalized, intuitive service and guest-centric experiences. 

In 2009, Seabourn raised the bar with the debut of Seabourn Odyssey, hailed as “a game-changer for the ultra-luxury segment. Seabourn launched two identical sisters, Seabourn Sojourn in 2010 and Seabourn Quest in 2011. Although larger than the original Seabourn ships, these 3 ships carry just 458 guests and offer a wealth of amenities made possible by the highest ratio of space per guest in the cruise industry, including the largest spa on any luxury ship and generous private verandas on 90 percent of their suites. Our first 600-passenger ship, Seabourn Encore, was delivered in 2016 and a second 600-passenger ship, Seabourn Ovation, was delivered 2018. This new class of ocean vessels featured private verandas for every suite and expanded Seabourn’s complimentary fine dining offerings. 

In 2022, Seabourn redefined expedition travel with the launch of our first ultra-luxury, purpose-built expedition ship Seabourn Venture, joined by her sister ship, Seabourn Pursuit in 2023. Designed and purpose-built specifically for expedition cruising in unprecedented elegance and ease, these ships will bring travelers further, deeper, and closer to the most coveted and remote destinations on earth. Onboard these incredible vessels, you will be joined by our world-class 24-person Expedition Team, delivering immersive experiences, and guiding you throughout your entire expedition. You will explore a world where ultra-luxury meets adventure in state-of-the-art custom-built 6-person submarines, Zodiacs, kayaks, on other-worldly hikes and nature walks and more.

Our fleet allows us to offer the award-winning Seabourn experience to more travelers, in more unique regions than ever before. We would be honored to welcome you to your ultra-luxury home away from home on your next journey.
