MS Polarlys, built in 1996, is a superb costal cruise ship, popular with many regular Hurtigruten passengers for the stunning views on offer from almost every quarter. Purpose built for the water in which she sails, MS Polarlys offers all those who sail on her a fascinating glimpse of Norway’s stunning shorelines.

The interiors are stylish yet welcoming, with the wooden finishes and brass fixtures giving the MS Polarlys a slightly classical feel.

MS Polarlys Accommodation

Hurtigruten offers passengers comfortable accommodation with a choice ranging from Ocean View, Balcony and inside cabins.

MS Polarlys Entertainment

One of the great things about a Hurtigruten cruise is the opportunity to explore and learn about your chosen sailing in depth and as Hurtigruten themselves claim ‘Mother Nature provides the entertainment’. As such, your time onboard will be more about relaxing and enjoying the views rather than dancing the night away to the early hours. However, almost all voyages will include onboard lectures and conferences.
