Our guest’s wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do – from the cuisines we serve, the world-class and tranquil on board wellness spaces and the onshore excursions designed to invigorate the mind, body and soul. Scenic Eclipse and its sophisticated range of spaces and experiences – both on and off the Discovery Yacht – are designed for you to indulge, relax and unwind while enjoying the voyage of a lifetime.
