Best of the Southern Ocean - Antarctic Cruise

Birders will love the sparsely populated and remote Falkland Islands. Falkland Islands are a wonderful place to see marine mammals. Cetaceans like Peale’s Dolphins and Commerson’s Dolphins live in the waters surrounding the archipelago. The weather on these windswept and isolated islands will determine our exact itinerary and the exploration possibilities.

Stanley is the capital and charmingly British city of the Falkland Island. The Falkland Islands Museum is within walking distance of the waterfront promenade, as are the Governor's House, the cathedral, with its impressive whalebone arches outside, the war memorial, gift shops and pubs. There are also views of shipwrecks on the harbor.

The most authentic form of expedition cruising. The weather we experience in South Georgia will determine our route and the exploration possibilities available. The itinerary is determined by our experienced expedition leader and captain, who constantly adjusts plans to suit the conditions. In this remote and wild corner of the globe, you can rest assured that we will take full advantage of all the opportunities presented by the nature. Every chance we get, we land in this incredible place.

South Georgia offers a spectacular wilderness, and is the perfect place to see subantarctic wildlife. According to reports, the islands host up to 100 million seabirds including albatrosses, penguins prions, terns and petrels. Over 100,000 elephant seals, three million fur seals, and innumerable other penguins such as stately king and macaroni penguins compete for space on beaches like those of Salisbury Plain or St. Andrews Bay. This wilderness will be even more beautiful and vibrant with birds after the recently finished rat-eradication program.

Whales are increasingly common in the abundant waters around South Georgia. Grytviken, the historic whaling base of South Georgia is home to an excellent South Georgia Museum run by the South Georgia Heritage Trust. Grytviken, where Ernest Shackleton is buried, was the whaling station of the past. It now houses the excellent South Georgia Museum run by the South Georgia Heritage Trust.

We will fill our days with unforgettable excursions, delicious meals, expert presentations, breathtaking scenery, and plenty of wildlife.
