Antarctica Destinations
Antarctic Peninsula
The Antarctic Peninsula is the most accessible from South America. Over 95% of our Antarctica Voyages include the peninsula.
Polar Circle
The Polar circle, known as the Antarctic Circle, runs at 66°33′48.8″ south of the equator. Some adventures claim you must cross the circle to officially explore Antarctica! When we refer to voyages that visit the Polar Circle as a destination, we mean cruises that aim to cross this line.
Ross Sea
The Ross Sea is even more remote than the South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands. Most voyages including the Ross Sea are a minimum of 28 or 30 days.
Falkland Islands
The Falkland Islands, or Islas Malvinas, offer a unique history and biodiversity. Over 63 land bird species, including the albatross, call the islands home.
South Georgia
A visit to this remote island requires a longer voyage. Occasionally, a special cruise departure may include stops at the South Sandwich Islands and South Orkney Islands as well. They are a must visit for wildlife lovers – King Penguins, Elephant Seals, land birds and more abound.
Weddell Sea
The Weddell Sea is the jumping off point for most voyages that include a visits to observe the ultimate Antarctic wildlife – the Emperor Penguin.
Did You Know…during the winter months Antarctica experiences a Polar Night? This means the polar circle receives no direct sunshine a few months each year!
