Day 1: Ushuaia, Argentina
With a population of more than 63,000 people, Ushuaia is the
southernmost city in the world. The city has grown over the past few
years, yet it has retained an easy going and accessible feel. With the
sea to the south and mountains to the north, Ushuaia is a spectacular
departure point for your Antarctic cruise. If you arrive early, you can
spend some time in the nearby Tierra del Fuego National Park, enjoy
some Argentinean wines and barbeques in the city, or visit the many
boutique shops before for your expedition to Antarctica.
Day 2: Embarkation Day
Embarkation will occur in the late afternoon, after which your vessel
will sail down the historic Beagle Channel. This historic channel
transects the Tierra del Fuego archipelago in the extreme south of
South America. Expect an air of excitement as we depart - the next time
you see land we’ll be in the world’s most southern
continent!
Day 3 – 4: Crossing the
Drake Passage
Prepare yourself for potentially rough water, but hope for a smooth
sailing as the Drake is unpredictable and always changing.
You’ll spend these first days getting to know your shipmates,
while we’ll provide safety briefings and insights into what
excitement lies ahead.
Days 5 – 8: South
Shetland Islands and Antarctic Peninsula
When the Antarctic Convergence is left in our wake, you will truly
begin your Antarctic adventure. Weather permitting we’ll be
able to make our first landing on the afternoon of day 5. It is perhaps
the first sight of land itself that is embraced as the true beginning
of any Antarctic expedition. You can begin to appreciate why this
region has long captivated the attention of explorers and travelers
alike. Every time we visit Antarctica we witness something new or
unexpected, meaning your expedition will be unlike any other - creating
a unique, personal experience.
We will take Zodiac excursions from the ship to explore bays, channels and landing sites each day. With wildlife always at the forefront of our minds you will visit penguin rookeries, scout for humpback and Minke whales and search for a number of the southern seal species, including the cunning leopard seal.
The majesty of the Peninsula’s mountains will enchant you as you scramble up snowy pathways to vantage points offering you 360° views of your surroundings. One of these in particular, in Orne Harbour, gives the opportunity to visit a chinstrap penguin colony high up on a ridge. Here you’ll have the choice between going for a mountain hike or spending time sitting quietly on a pebbled beach to enjoy the antics of curious penguins. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, participating in the Polar Plunge swim is about as crazy as it gets!
Amidst the peaceful silence of Antarctica, noisy interruptions become indelible memories such as penguins squabbling over prized pebbles or the boom and crack of a calving glacier in Neko Harbour. You can make a bit of noise yourself too by listening to the echo of voices bounce off a giant glacier.
Every day will be different, having been carefully crafted by your Expedition Team so as to entertain and educate you on this wonderful part of the world.
Days 9 – 10: Drake
Passage to Ushuaia
The journey back across the Drake Passage provides you with some final
opportunities to enjoy the crisp Antarctic air. Spend time on the deck
watching for seabirds and scouting for whales, enjoy a few final
presentations by your Expedition Team or simply relax and reminisce
about your experiences.
Day 11: Disembarkation in Ushuaia
We’ll arrive in Ushuaia in the morning for you to continue
your adventure on land or catch your flights home.
