Expedition cruising can oftentimes transport you to locales unlike anywhere else on Earth. In doing so, wearing formal clothes can be rather strenuous and impractical. As such, Swan Hellenic has a relaxed dress code on all their cruises, with no formal clothes required during meal times. Casual wear is completely fine during the day and night, including trousers, jeans, sportswear, long-sleeve tops, casual shirts, and skirts.
It is important to note in cold regions such as the Arctic and Antarctica, while the interior will always be warm and comfortable, not requiring any heavy layering, the exterior can be very cold. Swan Hellenic recommends once you have returned to the ship after spending a day adventuring to have an extra layer of clothing in close reach in case you wish to pop outside to observe a special moment.
Guests on Swan Hellenic cruises will spend the majority of their sailing either outside the ship exploring the magnificent destination or attending an enriching lecture conducted by the expedition team.

Otherwise, guests can often be found enjoying the various facilities available throughout the ship. From sharing stories with newfound friends in the Club Lounge, rejuvenating their body at the sauna, to ordering a tantalising meal at the Swan Restaurant, guests have a whole world to explore on the ship as well as off it.
