Shore Landings on Scenic Ikon

Shore landings on Scenic Ikon are designed to bring you as close as possible to nature, wildlife, and local culture, often in places few visitors ever see. Because Ikon is built with a strengthened Polar Class hull and advanced stabilisation systems, it can navigate shallow bays, icy fjords, and remote coastal areas with confidence.

Landings are typically guided by Scenic’s expert Discovery Team (including scientists, naturalists, historians, and regional specialists), who ensure that each step ashore is meaningful, safe, and respectful of local ecosystems. This might include walking on pristine beaches, exploring wildlife habitats, visiting indigenous communities, or trekking scenic shorelines.
