ANTARCTICA
Antarctica and the Sub-Antarctic Islands are some of the
truly unspoilt regions of the world. The mysterious White
Continent, with its multi-colored ice caps, glistening
glaciers and towering snow-capped mountains, offers
unparalled scenery and photographic opportunities. Enormous
numbers of penguins, whales, seals and seabirds congregate
in the food-rich waters along the Antarctic and
sub-Antarctic shores. The future of Antarctica is crucial to
the climate and ecology of the world. On most of our cruises
we will have the opportunity to visit one of the many
scientific bases.
Our small, specially
designed expedition ships journey south, taking full
advantage of the 24 hours of daylight during the austral
summer. Ice-strengthened hulls and state-of-the-art
equipment allow us to navigate through the ice pack and
narrow waterways. Our zodiac excursions, guided by foremost
Antarctic experts, offer the freedom to explore remote
locations and observe Antarctica's Abundant wildlife.
Our itineraries
include the Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetland Islands,
Falkland Islands (Malvinas), South Georgia, South Orkney
Islands, and South Sandwich Islands.
