Antarctica 7 - 21 February 2008


Tierra del Fuego to Antarctica

Heroic feats of endurance, commercial exploitation, territorial disputes, intense scientific study, extraordinary scenery, combined with a fascinating wild life - these are the allure of Antarctica.

The South Shetlands

Starting at Ushuaia, on Tierra del Fuego, our cruise will be on the highly rated expedition cruise ship ‘MV Ushuaia’ as it crosses the Drake Passage to explore the South Shetland Islands and to view the Antarctic Peninsula. Landings will be made at several islands en route and there will be regular Zodiac cruises. The exact itinerary will depend on the weather and ice conditions at the time.

The Islands of the Antarctic Peninsula

We plan to make landings at King George Island, Livingstone Island, Peterman Island, Deception Island, Halfmoon Island, and Aitcho Island, to make a Zodiac cruise in Paradise Harbour and to cruise through the spectacular Lemaire Channel.
