South Atlantic Island Explorer

Polar Latitudes
Duration 34 Days
Departure Ushuaia

This epic 34 day South Atlantic Island Explorer voyage is a once-in-a-lifetime Repositioning Cruise. Starting from the world’s southernmost city, Ushuaia to the Cape Verde Islands. You’ll be able to disconnect from so-called civilization, as you visit islands few people ever get to see; walk in the footsteps of history; look for rarely spotted wildlife; have the opportunity to hear from experts or learn a new skill. This voyage of thousands of miles will take you to some of the most fascinating islands in the southern Atlantic, home to rare birds, marine and other wildlife; and rich in botany and cultural significance

This expedition is with Polar Latitudes, an Antarctica Specialist that focuses 100% of their voyages on the Antarctica region. The expedition company ensures the main attraction on every journey is creating an up-close and personal connection with one of the last truly wild places on earth. And everything Polar Latitudes does, on board and off, is to enhance that experience. All expeditions are on 4* ships, either the MS Seaventure or the MS Island Sky

Seaventure features a 1-A Super ice class rating — the highest ice class awarded to passenger vessels. The ship offers all outside-facing staterooms (some with balconies) and beautifully appointed dining areas, as well as al fresco dining on the Lido deck when weather permits. Seaventure also offers a heated saltwater pool on the top deck, a sauna and fitness center, and a dedicated Citizen Science lab.
