SH Minerva

Get in touch

SH Minera perfectly combines elegant form with superior function, offering 5 star comfort and service for a maximum of just 152 passengers. Here at Aqua-Firma, we love the relaxed atmosphere onboard, with an interior design of rich textiles and intimate lighting, creating a welcoming, comfortable environment. Despite offering such fine surroundings the onboard team still delivers an expedition philosophy where wildlife and off ship exploration remain the focus.

With a choice of four cabin categories to choose from (Oceanview, Balcony, Suite and Premium Suite), many with balconies and all with unobstructed views, passengers can expect space, comfort and quality amenities.

Onboard experts are focused on exploratory travel and providing passengers with the most authentic experience as possible. Lecturers and guest speakers offer engaging talks on a wide range of subjects, bringing their specialist knowledge and insight to the scientific, geographic and historical aspects of the regions visited. Inquisitive passengers can also head to the library to drink in publications focused on travel, history and geographical discoveries.

The main restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, providing Michellin star quality international and local cuisine, focused on quality regional ingredients from the unique destinations the ship visits. Meanwhile, the observation lounge is the ideal place to sit back and relax with a drink, mingle with other passengers and enjoy the surrounding spectacular scenery. The Club Lounge is the hub of the ship, open from the early hours to late at night, with an expansive living room, leading out to the al fresco Pool Grill and Bar.

The Pool Grill and Bar serves hot dogs, burgers and fish as well as a large selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. By way of relaxation and exercise facilities onboard, Deck 8 offers a state-of-the-art gym, sauna (with a view) and outside Jacuzzi. When not being guided through the polar wilderness off-ship you can take the opportunity to enjoy the heated pool with plenty of pool-side seating.
