The Beluga was originally constructed in 1994 and has since been refurbished regularly. The ship's design is a reminder of more typical sailing experiences, with wooden interiors, porthole windows on the lower decks and a large observatory space in the ship's bow. The eight cabins are spread across all three decks with options of two twin beds or one matrimonial throughout and one cabin convertible to triple occupancy.
