The sixth ocean-going vessel in the Aqua Expeditions portfolio will offer thirty guests a unique experience akin to staying on a superyacht. Spread across six decks and measuring 77.4 metres in length, the accommodations range from 13 to 66 square metres, including three master suites.
The yacht, a converted Soviet icebreaker, underwent a major refit in 2016 at the Dutch shipyard Icon Yachts. The renovation added a panoramic sun deck with a bar and lounge; a cinema; a boutique; a gym; a salon; as well as indoor and outdoor dining areas.
Itineraries include five, nine, ten, and eleven-day cruises through the Seychelles, Tanzania, Aldabra Atoll, and Zanzibar. The official launch of Aqua Larel is scheduled for 2026.
