National Geographic Endeavour
Overview
Built in 1996 as a fishing trawler for the North Sea, National Geographic Endeavour was converted into a cruise ship in 1984, when she operated as the North Star, then Caledonian Star. She was reburbished in 1999 and given her present name in 2001. Lindblad's partnership with the National Geographic Society began in 2005. The comfortable expedition vessel carries Zodiac landing craft, kayaks, scuba gear (on select itineraries), snorkeling gear, and apparatus for viewing underwater marine life and the ocean environment.
