National Geographic Sea Lion national-geographic-sea-lion

National Geographic Sea Lion, like her twin ship, National Geographic Sea Bird, is a tried and true expedition ship that plies the waters from Alaska, to the Columbia and Snake Rivers, to Baja California and the Sea of Cortez and to Costa Rica and Panama. With a shallow draft and small size, she can easily reach places inaccessible to larger ships. She can venture into fast-moving channels where whales come to feed, transit a series of locks in the Pacific Northwest, nose up to waterfalls in secluded coves, and sail into protected anchorages in small bays perfect for snorkeling and kayaking.

Accommodation

Sea Lion's 31 outside cabins feature ocean views, private facilities and climate controls. Designed with expedition in mind, each offers ample drawer space in the desk and beneath the bed(s) so you can store any luggage you may have.

Accommodation

Food & Drink

Sea Lion's dining room is where all meals are served. Organised in single seatings with unassigned tables for an informal atmosphere and easy mingling, meals become a great time to make new friends a strike conversation with naturalists and experts.
