Chart a course through the Drake Passage and along the Antarctic Peninsula with the ambition of Crossing the Circle on this voyage. The farther south you go, the more sea ice you are likely to encounter, along with incredible wildlife and awe-inspiring scenery. Should you arrive at the Antarctic Circle with the famous coordinates of  66°33’S, you’ll join the small band of explorers that can claim they have made it this far south. The Antarctic Circle is the most southerly of the five major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth.

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.

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 the 4* ships the MS Seaventure.
