Between August and October, Seabourn Pursuit will embark on five Mediterranean journeys and two voyages across the Atlantic and the Caribbean. On October 10, 2023, the ship will arrive in Barbados to commence its expedition voyages, taking guests to remote corners of the globe. It will then head south for expeditions in South America, the Amazon, and Antarctica until the end of March 2024.
From June to August 2024, after its inaugural Antarctic season, the ship will traverse the islands of the Southern Pacific and eventually head to Australia, exploring the Kimberley region in the Northern Territory and Western Australia. The iconic Kimberley, with its red sandstone gorges, rivers, waterfalls, wildlife, and Aboriginal history, provides the ideal setting for a unique expedition experience. In addition to Kimberley, Seabourn Pursuit will visit Papua New Guinea, Western Papua, Indonesia, and cross the Southern Pacific from Chile to Melanesia between March and October 2024.
