Day 4 :
Located some 300 miles east of southern Argentina, the exquisite Falkland Islands have more to offer than their history as the battleground of the famed British-Argentinian conflict. Teetering at the edge of the Antarctic eco-zone, their 800 miles of coastline are home to 63 species of birds and a plethora of South American Fur Seals, South American Sea Lions, and Peale’s and Commerson’s Dolphins, among other cetaceans. Over 70 percent of the global Black-browed Albatross population breeds on the Falkland Islands, and tiny uninhabited Steeple Jason has the largest colony. Southern Rockhopper Penguins and King Cormorants also breed here in great numbers, and the three species can often be seen mixed together in a whirl of black and white. Other birdlife includes Magellanic and Gentoo Penguins, and three rare and endangered species for which the Falklands remains their global stronghold: Striated Caracara (or “Johnny Rook”), Blackish Cinclodes and White-bridled Finch.

Day 8 :
One Look At South Georgia’s Towering Mountains, and You’ll Understand Its Nickname of the ‘alps in Mid-ocean.’ Amid These Breathtaking Peaks, Broken Up By Rolling Grasslands, Lies An Astounding Concentration of Wildlife—antarctic Fur and Southern Elephant Seals, and Several Albatross Including Black-browed, Light-mantled Sooty, Grey-headed and the Spectacular Wandering; Plus King and Macaroni Penguins. South Georgia Was a Favorite of Early Explorers—captain James Cook First Stepped Ashore in 1775, But Perhaps More Famous is Sir Ernest Shackleton’s Arrival in 1916, Following the Sinking of His Ship, the Endurance. Flexibility in Exploring South Georgia is Key, as You Take Advantage of the Long Daylight Hours and Accommodate Mother Nature’s Whims.
the Highlights of South Georgia are Seemingly Endless But a Few Unforgettable Stops May Include the Following:
in Salisbury Plain, Gaze At a Blanket of Yellow, Orange, Black and White At the King Penguin Breeding Ground, Where Up to 70,000 Pairs Reside Along the Beaches and Hills.

Day 11 :
As you cruise the frigid Scotia Sea, warm yourself with rousing tales of the unimaginable odds Shackleton’s men overcame while stranded over a winter on upcoming Elephant Island. Before turning in at night, be sure to stroll the deck and experience the sheer vastness of the Antarctic night sky and sea.

Located a Mere 150 Miles from Antarctica, the South Shetlands Still Manage to Support Some Vegetation, as They are the Most Southerly Members of the Scotia Sea Islands Tundra Ecoregion. Pink Algae-flecked Glaciers Greet You as You Approach Elephant Island But It’s the Jagged Peaks that Drop Dramatically Into the Swirling Seas that Capture Your Attention. in 1916, When Shackleton’s 22-man Crew Was Stranded Here, They Lived Beneath Two Upturned Boats for 105 Days Until They Were Rescued. to Witness the Extreme Conditions Firsthand Makes It Almost Unfathomable to Imagine Anyone Lasting Four Days, Let Alone Four Months, and Yet They Did.
Day 14 :
With near constant daylight at this time of year, there is ample opportunity to explore this otherworldly kingdom. The Antarctic Peninsula is the northernmost part of the continent of Antarctica, and is irresistible for its spectacularly carved icebergs and calving glaciers, and for the possibility of up-close encounters with marine mammals, including Weddell, Southern Elephant, Crabeater and Leopard Seals, and Minke, Humpback, Sei and Fin Whales, as well as Orcas. Zodiacs allow for up-close encounters with this wildlife and, weather permitting, landings on shore, where you can walk among penguins, and perhaps visit a research station to see the multinational scientific activities taking place.
In the spirit of expedition cruising, flexibility is key, and your Expedition Leader will determine the best course each day. Taking into account the weather, ice conditions and wildlife activity, we hope to spend time at the following locations:
Brown Bluff, where hundreds of skua and Pintado Petrel nests hang above an ash beach strewn with extraterrestrial-looking boulders. Some 20,000 pairs of Adelie Penguins, and hundreds of Gentoo Penguins make their home on this beach.
See hauled-out Weddell and Antarctic Fur Seals on a Zodiac tour off Cuverville Island. Once ashore, walk past Gentoo Penguin nesting sites while looking out for Snow and Pintado Petrels.
Ice cruise along aptly-named Paradise Bay, with stunning views of mountains, glaciers and icebergs. It is also home to Argentina’s “Base Almirante Brown” research station.
Walk amongst roaming Snowy Sheathbills and Gentoo Penguins on a visit to Port Lockroy, a British base constructed towards the end of World War II that was later used as a research station and is now both a museum and operating post office.
On Paulet Island, learn about Otto Nordenskjold, who over-wintered here in 1912, as you gape at the 80 to 90,000 breeding Adelie Penguins blanketing the terrain. On a nearby hill, view a massive colony of Antarctic Shags.
At Deception Island, navigate the narrow channel known as Neptune’s Bellows, and enter into a volcano whose collapsed cone was flooded by seawater. Once inside, explore the island’s whaling history with views of the ruins and old boilers used to make whale oil in the early 1900s.

Day 18 :
This 600-mile-wide Channel Separating the Antarctic Peninsula from Cape Horn is Notorious among Mariners for Its High Winds and Rough Seas.

Watch for Black-browed and Wandering Albatross, Sooty Shearwaters, and White-chinned Petrels. As the Mountains of Tierra Del Fuego Come Into View, Be On Deck to Celebrate the End of Your Magnificent Antarctic Journey.
