Day 03 - 08 : Exploring Antarctica
Sail along ice-filled fjords and among spectacular icebergs while enjoying the company of seabirds,
penguins, seals, and whales. Visit the South Shetland Islands and the western coast of the Antarctic
Peninsula, disembarking by Zodiac each day. In small groups, hike to extraordinary sites and take
part in exploratory Zodiac excursions to otherwise inaccessible areas. Our expert polar guides share
their passion for Antarctica through an engaging program of illustrated presentations and lead you
ashore to interpret the wildlife, the history, and the many wonders of the Antarctic environment. Enjoy
spectacular views from the glass-enclosed lounge while sharing your daily adventures with fellow
guests over a drink.
The goal of this expedition is to sail far south in the attempt to reach the Polar Circle. The Expedition
Team plans the specific voyage route based on local conditions and takes advantage of the ever-
changing opportunities provided by nature. Flexibility will be the key to a successful voyage. Your
voyage may include visits to sites in the South Shetland Islands, the Antarctic Sound, the Gerlache and
Penola Straits, and the Crystal Sound. Each voyage is unique and crafted to provide the best possible overview
of the varied Antarctic environment.
