Day 5
Cruising Antarctica, Antarctica
another world: Experience Antarctica in all its majesty. Nothing can quite prepare you for it. Surrounded by looming glaciers and icebergs the size of cathedrals, Antarctica will fill you with wonder. Large groups of penguins huddle on the ice floes to avoid the cunning leopard seals that hunt them. Migrating whales glide beside enormous icebergs as they feed on krill. Bird enthusiasts should keep their eyes peeled for some of the 45 species of Antarctic seabirds that live here, including skuas, cormorants, petrels, and terns. The Antarctic summer will be coming to an end when we arrive. Expect to see these landscapes beautifully illuminated by breathtaking sunsets. It's a great time to see penguins in their final stage of molting. It is also peak whale-watching season, as large amounts of krill lure cetaceans to the area. Nature is king here and we are mere observers. Our experienced captain will continually monitor conditions to create the best possible itinerary for your adventure. During 10 exciting days, we'll busily explore several of the many possible landing sites in the South Shetland Islands and on the Antarctic Peninsula, based on when and where conditions are at their best. It doesn't matter where we go or what we do, every day will be thrilling and unlike anything you've experienced before. You'll go on landings and take part in ice-cruising. You may even have the opportunity to kayak among the icebergs. Back onboard, the Expedition Team will continue their lectures, giving you deeper insight into the frozen continent. ... Read More
