Ventus Australis is the sistership to Stella Australis and has been designed with excellent manoeuvrability to enabale exploration of even the tightest of channels. 

Ventus Australis is Latin for “Southern Wind”, which characterises Tierra del Fuego’s distinctive weather.  For a long time, Patagonia’s windy reputation had determined the region’s socio-cultural development and that so impressed the early mariners who sought to explore her southernmost waterways.
 

With a capacity for 200 passengers, Ventus Australis has been designed to navigate the narrow fjords and channels that other ships simply cannot venture.  All cabins are spacious with exterior views and large windows.  There are three lounges onboard, as well as a dining room, well stocked library and bridge, which passengers are welcome to visit.

The all-inclusive onboard restaurant and lounge bar serve gourmet treats each day, with a menu inspired by all corners of the globe and a wine menu designed to please every palate.

Insightful seminars and lectures are delivered each day by the onboard expert expedition team, covering subjects such as glaciology, geography, history and the flora and fauna of Patagonia.

Itineraries aboard this vessel include 4 night departures, taking you on a journey of discovery to the “uttermost end of the earth”.  Explore the raw beauty of Patagonia as you navigate the legendary Strait of Magellan, Cape Horn and the remote islands of Tierra del Fuego.
