Day 5-9: South Shetland Islands and theAntarctic Peninsula

This is expedition cruising at its most authentic.Our route and exploration opportunitiesin Antarctica are heavily dependent on weather andice conditions. Our experienced captain andexpedition leader decide the itinerary andcontinually adjust plans as conditions andopportunities warrant. We take advantage of longdaylight hours to exploit every opportunityto experience excellent wildlife viewing, amazingscenery, and excursions via Zodiac.

The Antarctic Peninsula region contains some of the world’s most impressive scenery and someof Antarctica’s best wildlife viewing opportunities. Protected bays and narrow channels are surroundedby towering mountain peaks covered in permanent snow and immense glaciers. Icebergs of every size anddescription complete an image of incomparable beauty. Waters rich with krill are home to a varietyof whale and seal species. The whole area is alive with penguins foraging at sea and forming large nestingcolonies at special places on land. The area is also home to Antarctic research stations of variousnationalities. Some stations have a gift shop and post office.The South Shetland Islands are the northernmost islands in Antarctica and will likely be our first sightingof land. This wild and beautiful island chain contains numerous landing sites with abundant wildlife andhistorical significance. Among them is Deception Island, where the flooded caldera of an active volcanoharbors an abandoned whaling station.Farther south, on the Antarctic Peninsula, the vast Gerlache Strait area contains sheltered bays,accessible wildlife, and stunning scenery. Places with names like Paradise Bay are the epitomeof everything Antarctic: glaciated mountains, towering icebergs, feeding whales, seals on ice floes, andbustling penguin colonies.At the southern end of Gerlache Strait is the famous Lemaire Channel, also known as «Kodak Gap»because of the photogenic way the mountainous sides of the narrow channel are reflected in calm watersstrewn with icebergs.Our days in Antarctica are filled with memorable excursions, sumptuous meals, presentations by ourexperts, and enough incredible scenery and wildlife to fill your camera and overwhelm your emotions.
