ABOUT AQUA LARES

AQUA LARES, formerly the explorer yacht LEGEND, has been reimagined for expedition charter across East Africa, the Seychelles and the Arctic. At 77 metres, she combines the capability of an ice-class vessel with the space, service and comfort of a 15-cabin superyacht, making her well suited to remote routes that require range, stability and experienced expedition support.

With space for 30 guests, she offers rare scale for families, private groups and multi-generational charters. Interiors balance understated comfort with relaxed warmth, while her 33-strong crew, including expedition leaders, spa professionals and hospitality experts, supports each journey on board and ashore.

Life on board AQUA LARES is designed around the regions she explores. In the Seychelles and Tanzania, days might be spent tracing remote coastlines, encountering giant tortoises, diving among coral reefs, searching for whale sharks and dolphins, or watching the horizon from the main deck Jacuzzi as dhows sail by.

Evenings bring guests together in the cinema, around al fresco dining on deck or in the yacht’s onboard spa, with an indoor Jacuzzi, sauna, massage salon and treatment room. For routes through the Seychelles, Tanzania and the Arctic, AQUA LARES provides the scale, comfort and expedition capability needed to explore remote regions without relying on conventional cruise infrastructure.

Selected individual cabin departures are also available on certain AQUA LARES routes, including Seychelles, Tanzania and Arctic sailings. Please enquire for current availability, departure dates and pricing.

Why we love it

AQUA LARES stands out for the way she brings expedition capability, superyacht comfort and flexible charter formats to remote cruising routes across East Africa, the Seychelles and the Arctic. Her ice-class hull, helipad, long range, 15-cabin layout and 33-strong crew make her well suited to journeys that require both comfort and operational depth.

In the Indian Ocean, she opens routes between Seychelles, Tanzania, Aldabra, Cosmoledo, Astove, Farquhar and Zanzibar, combining marine wildlife, coral reefs, Swahili heritage and remote island access. In the Arctic, the same capability supports polar exploration across Svalbard, Greenland and high-latitude waters.
