HX Expeditions - MS Spitsbergen

MS Spitsbergen

MS Spitsbergen is an intimate HX Expeditions ship, extensively refurbished in 2025 to pair modern expedition capability with simple Scandinavian style. With space for just 150 guests, she feels relaxed and personal, with wide decks and panoramic windows that keep you connected to the landscape. Days revolve around landings with the Expedition Team, with briefings and learning centred in the onboard Science Centre. Between adventures, settle into the Explorer Lounge and Bar, enjoy regional flavours in Restaurant Aune and the casual Brygga Bistro, then warm up in the panoramic sauna or soak in the open-air hot tubs.

Intimate 150 Guests

Just 150 guests keeps it personal, with the agility to reach remote places larger ships often can’t.

Science Centre Learning

The onboard Science Centre hosts briefings and lectures, adding depth to every landing and wildlife encounter.

Sauna and Hot Tubs

Panoramic sauna plus two open-air hot tubs make the perfect warm-up after days out on deck.
