OVERVIEW
Our longest Antarctica-only cruise, the 13-day Antarctica Explorer, will take us to the Great White Continent's breathtaking beauty, glacier-covered peaks, and extraordinary wildlife. Get ready for the ultimate Antarctic trip as we head off, we'll cruise across the quiet, calm waters of the Beagle Channel and take in the breathtaking views of slope glaciers. But as we cross the fabled Drake Passage, where the warmer Atlantic and Pacific Oceans meet the icy Antarctic, the true adventure starts. Get ready for an exciting voyage as we cross this fabled body of water, which is famed for its wild weather and powerful westerly winds known as the Roaring Fifties.
Fear not, though, since our ship was designed with stabilisers, strong engines, and a revolutionary reclining bow that offers comfort and stability in choppy seas while consuming very little gasoline. Even the most experienced sailors consider crossing the Drake Passage a once-in-a-lifetime accomplishment, and you'll get to do it twice! Prepare to be astounded by the quantity of seabirds, albatrosses, and several whale species as we navigate these nutrient-rich seas. If the conditions are right, we might even see seals and penguins. Keep a watch out for whales, sea lions, elephant seals, a staggering number of seabirds, and penguins as we go through the South Shetland Islands, a sparkling chain of ice-covered islands and dormant volcanoes.
