Environment and the RMS

"We've Gone A Bit Green,
( However, for the RMS St Helena it's quite normal !)"

The passenger/cargo liner RMS St. Helena operates in some of the cleanest, most pristine seas in the world.  With voyages from Cape Town to the South Atlantic Islands of St. Helena and Ascension Island via Walvis Bay and, on to Europe.  These voyages take her through waters containing some of the most delicate and undisturbed ecosystems on the planet, areas of natural aquatic beauty, teeming with ever interesting and intriguing marine wildlife.  Even some the seabirds here are unique and can be found nowhere else.  These are the trademarks of an environment well worth preserving.

Bearing all this in mind, the dedicated ship's crew is always actively involved with protecting the environment for the benefit of all.  Many  of the everyday shipboard activities, which may appear routine enough, are all carried out with an Eco-friendly mindset.  Our passengers are encouraged to see Mother Nature at her finest. Guided excursions with a 'Green Flavour' are offered in many of our destinations.  All this seeks to increase everyone's awareness of the Environment and what is currently being done to protect it.
