National Geographic Resolution

  • Vessel details

    A next-generation expedition ship, purpose-built for polar navigation.

    National Geographic Resolution is a next-generation expedition ship, purpose-built for polar navigation. A sistership to the, National Geographic Endurance, she is a fully stabilised, highly strengthened, ice-class Polar Class 5 (PC5) vessel, it is designed to navigate polar passages year-round, and safely explore uncharted waters, while providing exceptional comfort. Its patented X-BOW® is key to its design; its powerful wave-slicing action provides an extremely smooth ride in even adverse conditions, and even reduces spray on deck, for superior observation. She carries a full suite of expedition tools and offers a variety of experience-enhancing amenities.

    Highlights

    • The ship's most striking exterior feature is her distinctive profile, the patented X-Bow®, a game-changing design that guarantees the smoothest, most comfortable ride in all kinds of conditions; and, since it eliminates bow impact, a quieter ride as well.

    • Scandinavian-inflected, luxuriously appointed, her inviting interiors would be a destination in themselves. Because she is a Lindblad expedition ship, however, her attention is focused on the world outside—with numerous large windows to keep you connected to the stunning views beyond the pane, and a fleet of expedition tools to get you out exploring.

    National Geographic Resolution's public spaces ensure that your time on board is as rewarding and enriching as your time on shore. Spaces include an observation lounge; library; main lounge with full service bar, 24-hour beverage station, and state-of-the-art tech for films/presentations; an expedition base with lockers for expedition gear; and open access to the Bridge, Captain, officers, and on-duty wildlife spotters. Restaurant 270° features wrap-around views; two other dining areas offer lighter, made-to-order fare or intimate, small group dinners. All feature sustainable choices and unassigned, flexible, inclusive seating.
