Inventing life at sea, and reinventing it
When we launched in 2002, The World introduced a lifestyle of residential luxury adventure that was previously unimaginable. With each year’s journey, we continue to elevate the pinnacle of exploration, enjoying exclusive, curated experiences in every corner of the globe, while traveling from the comfort of Home. Every aspect of life on board is meticulously attended to by The World’s unrivaled Crew, so that all our Residents need to do is enjoy.
The only Ship of its kind
The World is the planet’s largest private residential yacht at 644 feet / 196 meters – the only Ship of its kind currently in operation sailing a continuous itinerary across every ocean and continent. Aboard this truly unique Ship are amenities that exceed even the highest standards of luxury travel.
An international community of adventurers
Drawn together by the love of exploration, Residents of The World share an endless wanderlust, the appreciation of exquisite quality, and a profound respect for the cultures and environment of our shared planet.
We used to dream of sailing every ocean together. The World made it a reality.

Our Commitment to Sustainability
As global explorers, our Residents are stewards of the places they visit – driven by their passion for up-close experiences in the most sought-after destinations and remote locales. Preserving these treasures for future generations requires determination to leave a light footprint and help bolster important scientific study.
Our Global Impact
Residents embrace a hands-on approach to exploration, and that philosophy extends from supporting local communities to environmental conservation. From donating supplies to cleanup projects to big-ticket fundraisers, Residents of The World are dedicated to leaving a positive impact in the places they travel.
Luxury, Reimagined
Every three years, The World enters Dry-dock to elevate its luxurious interior and undergo routine maintenance. Learn about the latest enhancements, including a fully reimagined Pool Bar & Grill and stunning new features in the The World Spa & Wellness Center.
