Scenic Eclipse has revealed the first look at its exclusive Scenic Neptune submarine as it dives below the clear aquamarine Caribbean waters, during its inaugural season captained by pilot Remy Izendooren.

The images capture the intensity and breath-taking beauty of diving up to 300 metres below the ocean and shows guests onboard during their deep-sea adventure on the custom-built U-Boat Worx Cruise Submarine.

From sunken wrecks, marine and biological reserves to an ocean floor teeming with life in the Antarctic, Scenic Neptune will provide guests with an unforgettable experience as the craft journeys through the ocean’s depths.

“Diving with our submarine is an ‘out of this world’ experience.”

About Scenic Neptune

For seamless visibility, Scenic Neptune’s acrylic spheres are constructed from a material which has the same refraction index as seawater, which means the barrier visually disappears underwater, providing an open and spacious feeling.

Scenic Neptune has internal climate control as well as a surround-sound audio system, for the most enjoyable dive.

The craft is specially commissioned to meet international design standards, offering unmatched comfort with maximum legroom and headroom, without compromising on style.

Getting in and out of the submarine has been made easy through a convenient deck and optimum human engineering, such as ergonomically designed handles.

Once inside, guests seat themselves in one of the two three-person pods, one each at the front and back, and enjoy spectacular views of their complete surrounding from chairs that are mounted on a 280-degree swivelling platform.

The craft is also fitted with strong exterior lights that will allow guests to take in every last detail of the underwater sights.

“I have had the honour to be a part of many people’s first-ever experience of being underwater. To me, it’s all about people and their genuine reactions and emotions.”

Remy Izendooren, Submarine Pilot, Scenic Eclipse
