Protecting the world oceans
Following VistaJet’s commitment to become carbon-neutral by 2025, we continue to curate conscious journeys to transform private travel. Combining science, exploration and education, our collection of journeys is inspired by exploring and protecting the world oceans; from an underwater safari with world-leading photographer Shawn Heinrichs to rebuilding reefs in French Polynesia.
Kisawa Sanctuary and the Bazaruto Center for Scientific Studies (BCSS), set on the pristine Benguerra Island off the coast of Mozambique, introduce a new symbiotic business model whereby hospitality contributes directly to non-profit marine research.
Combining natural experiences with environmental knowledge and practices, the sanctuary is the perfect place for guests looking for a fulfilling, purpose-driven escape.
Guests can go shark tagging with leading scientists, record whale songs with visiting research teams, adventure diving or contribute to making 3D-printed reefs created using the sanctuary’s trademarked technology. Depart Kisawa with a sense of learning and contribution, and feel reconnected with the natural environment.
Earth 300 is an extreme technology platform for science, exploration and innovation at sea. Incorporating frontier technologies such as robotics, AI and quantum computing, it aims to pioneer catalytic blockbuster solutions to combat climate change.
Equipped with 22 onboard state-of-the-art laboratories, the 300-metres long vessel – launching in 2025 – will hold four different communities: 160 of the world’s leading scientists, multidisciplinary experts, students and private citizens.
Your mission will be to carry out research expeditions and work alongside experts to bring rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented solutions in real time to market. On board Earth 300, science, technology, adventure, education and entertainment will be brought together in ways never before imagined.
Undertake an extraordinary underwater safari around the world with seven personal guests. This life-changing journey presents the opportunity to encounter some of the world's most iconic marine species accompanied by Emmy award-winning underwater film maker and conservationist, Shawn Heinrichs.
From air to land to sea, you will be greeted by a world-class team who will stay by your side to guide and capture every once-in-a-lifetime moment.
In April, start your journey in Raja Ampat, where you will cruise the enchanting archipelago in search of giant oceanic manta. In July, visit Mexico to snorkel with endangered whale sharks, and in August, make your way to Tonga where humpback whales await your arrival.
Explore the lesser visited reefs in the Red Sea with world-renowned conservationists and contribute to cutting edge climate research, preserving the marine life on the atolls.
These waters are host to a myriad of marine life from gorgeous anthias and butterfly fish, to hammerhead sharks and manta rays, as well as dolphins, turtles and much more.
Join coral restoration teams to rebuild the reefs throughout the islands and atolls of French Polynesia. Explore the bottom of the ocean in submersibles and collect data with marine biologists. Gather and cultivate corals with scientists working on new medical cures, to make a tangible difference in securing the future of the reef.
Venture to the remote and breathtakingly beautiful Antarctic Peninsula. Navigate mountainous islands and icebergs aboard your expedition yacht. Encounter spectacular wildlife, alongside the world's leading experts, conservationists and photographers. Your journey will make a significant contribution in the campaign to protect the Antarctic Ocean and its more than 10,000 species.
The Darewin project was founded on a simple idea: protecting the oceans and raising awareness for marine life by simply allowing people to dive. Using new technologies such as virtual reality and 360 degree cameras, help provide insights between dolphin and whale communication and habits. A mixture of science and adventure, this expedition will give you the thrill of meeting the giants of the sea.
