Typical Itinerary
The only thing that’s typical about a day with Sea|mester is that it’s going to be anything but typical!
Throughout the journey you should expect each day to be unique and unrepeatable, holding opportunities to witness, experience and learn about the world, about others and about yourself. From the moment you step aboard, you’ll quickly learn that there are no passengers on our vessels, only crew members.

Staff Training and Certification
We’re a group of dedicated experiential educators who create and run expeditionary study abroad programs that hold the possibility of changing lives. We are as diverse as the destinations we travel. We come from all different backgrounds – Captains, Marine Engineers, Marine Biologists, Oceanographers… Some of our team came to Sea|mester to study abroad in college and found their way back realizing that their life’s work was right here. Regardless of how we arrived or where we came from, we share a desire to reach, discover and evolve.
