About Aqua Blu
Aqua Blu was commissioned in 1968 as HMS Beagle, a Bulldog-class hydrographic survey ship of the Royal Navy. Decommissioned in 2002, she was sold and converted into the charter yacht Titan. Aqua Expeditions bought her in 2018 and rebuilt her with 15 cabins as Aqua Blu, and she made her first voyage in Indonesia in November 2019. Ponant Explorations Group took a majority stake in Aqua Expeditions in January 2025.
