A Day in the Americas

Scenic Eclipse A day in the Americas

Be inspired by glaciers calving along Alaska’s Inside Passage, home to numerous whales. Choose a winery to explore along America’s surf coast. Kayak among manta rays in turquoise waters of Baja’s Sea of Cortez or set off to birdwatch amidst Central America’s most enchanting tropical rainforests. Every day on board Scenic Eclipse begins with the promise of new discoveries.

Awaken

Dawn’s pale hue plays across your ultra-luxury suite as the gentle lap of waves urges you from your Scenic Slumber Bed. Step out onto your private verandah, breathing in vanilla scents of pure Costa Rican rainforest and delight in a chorus of cicadas, frogs and the impressive boom of howler monkeys. Soon the smell of fresh coffee pervades, as your personal butler delivers your morning brew.

In Baja and Costa Rica

On the Baja and Costa Rica Discovery voyage, choose between a walking tour of La Paz, the laid-back Mexican capital of Baja California Sur, which includes a snack at Hotel California, the inspiration for The Eagle’s hit song. Swim and snorkel with California sea lions off San Rafaelito Island or join your Discovery Guide on a kayak or paddleboard excursion from white sand beaches into the birdlife-rich mangrove stands of Ballandra Bay.

Your Morning

Prepare for your day, be assured that your Journey Designer has organised bespoke excursions and activities so you can experience the best of the region. Whether it’s the unique, exclusive performances of Scenic Enrich, the Scenic Freechoice program of up to six diverse excursions daily that match your pace and interests, or unique activities with our expert Scenic Discovery guides, the authentic experience will be one you’ll treasure forever.

In Huatulco, Mexico

In Huatulco, Mexico, explore the foods from 16 distinct indigenous groups that call this region of Oaxaca home. Snorkel or dive in Huatulco National Park, a land and sea reserve for hundreds of species including armadillos, hummingbirds, pelicans, black iguanas, dolphins, whales and turtles; or swim in the turquoise waters of Bahía de Cacaluta.

Afternoon Exploration

Explore even further by adding one of our next-level excursions taking you above, below and beyond the horizon. The two, state-of-the-art, helicopters^ on board Scenic Eclipse are designed for flightseeing, (think aerial views of active stratovolcano, Izalco, ‘Lighthouse of the Pacific’ near Acajutla, El Salvador) and helihiking. Or board Scenic Neptune, our customised submarine^, to reveal underwater wonders of Costa Rica’s turquoise waters of Bahia Culebra.

Evening Dining

After dinner at one of Scenic Eclipse’s 10 world-class dining experiences, what better way to finish the day than with live music or a nightcap in one of our nine bars and lounges, as you drift past the west coast of North or Central America.

Afternoon Relaxation

Return to the ultra-luxury of your Discovery Yacht. Lunch at one of several dining experiences, from casual to fine dining. Enjoy a dip in the Vitality Pools or activities including stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking programs, to waterskiing, snorkelling and inflatable sail boats. Sign out an E-bike to explore the local surrounds, then return to our 550m2 Senses Spa for the pure indulgence of rejuvenating treatments* or stretch muscles in our Gym, or Yoga and Pilates studio.

Evening Enrichment

A Scenic Enrich encounter will take you behind the scenes to enjoy cultural moments inaccessible to the ordinary traveller, like an exclusive performance by the smooth-gaited Peruvian Paso horses on our Andean Coastal Exploration. BACK TO CONTENTS
