LA DATCHA is a 77-metre Damen Yachting explorer yacht created for guests who want to venture far beyond the traditional charter routes without sacrificing comfort, refinement or exceptional service. Delivered in 2020, she combines the robust capabilities of a purpose-built expedition vessel with the elegant atmosphere of a luxury superyacht, offering an extraordinary platform for discovering some of the world’s most remote destinations.
Designed with major expeditions in mind, LA DATCHA is Ice Class and IMO Polar Code compliant, allowing her to navigate challenging environments with confidence. Enhanced fuel capacity, advanced refuse-management systems and carefully considered onboard logistics enable her to remain autonomous at sea for up to 40 days. Whether cruising through the dramatic fjords of Greenland, exploring the ice-covered landscapes of Antarctica or anchoring in a secluded tropical bay, she gives guests the freedom to experience places that few travellers ever reach.
Her exterior decks are designed to make the surrounding landscape part of the journey. Expansive observation areas provide uninterrupted views of the ocean, coastlines and wildlife, while a deck Jacuzzi offers the perfect place to relax after a day of exploration. Guests can enjoy open-air dining, peaceful moments at anchor or unforgettable encounters with whales, glaciers and remote shorelines from the comfort of the yacht.
LA DATCHA’s expedition capabilities are particularly impressive. A versatile fleet of tenders and a dedicated dive-support boat allow guests to reach hidden coves, pristine beaches and remote landing sites with ease. Optional helicopter and three-person TRITON submersible packages can also be arranged on request, creating opportunities to explore from the air or beneath the surface. For diving enthusiasts, the yacht features a fully certified dive centre with a decompression chamber, while a wide selection of jet skis and water toys ensures plenty of entertainment on the water.
Inside, LA DATCHA offers a warm and sophisticated retreat. Her interiors are elegant and welcoming, with generous living spaces, refined materials and a relaxed residential feel. The Observation Lounge is one of the yacht’s standout spaces, offering panoramic views and a comfortable setting from which to admire the changing scenery.
Accommodation is provided for up to 12 guests across six beautifully appointed staterooms, including two spacious master suites and a VIP suite. This flexible arrangement makes the yacht particularly well suited to families or groups of friends travelling together.
Wellness is also central to the onboard experience. Guests can unwind in the Turkish Hammam, sauna, indoor Jacuzzi, ice fountain and massage room, or maintain their fitness routine in the fully equipped gym with sea views. Supported by an attentive crew of 25, LA DATCHA delivers a rare combination of adventure, privacy and luxury, making her an exceptional choice for an unforgettable charter in the world’s most remarkable destinations.
