Quark Expeditions has unveiled its second solar eclipse voyage after seeing high demand for its previously announced Iceland to Greenland: Total Solar Eclipse cruise.
Sailing onboard the Ocean Explorer, the cruise line’s second solar eclipse voyage will depart Reykjavik on 3 August 2026.
The 17-day sailing, also called Iceland to Greenland: Total Solar Eclipse will take passengers to East Greenland’s High Arctic, positioning them at the optimal point to watch the world’s longest eclipse.
Guests will also venture to Möngufoss, one of Iceland’s most remote waterfalls, visit Northeast Greenland National Park, the largest national park in the world, and cruise the 110-kilometre Kong Oscar Fjord.
The voyage will also sail across the Denmark Strait and give guests the opportunity to visit Reykjavik and Nuuk.
Quark Expeditions Senior Director of Product Development Catherine Lawton said: “This voyage is a celebration of everything Quark Expeditions stands for: pioneering exploration, deep expertise, and delivering once-in-a-lifetime moments in the planet’s most remote regions.
“Our first solar eclipse voyage to Antarctica set the standard two decades ago, and the overwhelming response to our inaugural Arctic eclipse trips show that we continue to lead the way in offering the kind of transformative, front-row eclipse encounters that travelers dream of—this time with both Ultramarine and Ocean Explorer uniquely positioned for the 2026 Solar Eclipse.”
