From the wildlife-rich Antarctic Peninsula to the vast ice shelves and remote landscapes of the Weddell Sea, discover the extraordinary highlights of Antarctica’s frozen frontier.
The Antarctic Peninsula is the northernmost tip of the continent. It features some of Antarctica’s most impressive scenery, including glaciated islands, spectacular plunging ice cliffs and magnificent bays. Whether stepping ashore to climb the spectacular mountain scenery or slipping quietly in sea kayaks amongst a maze of icebergs, travelers will experience the world like never before. Highlights along this wintry labyrinth include the tip of the peninsula’s Brown Bluff and Antarctic Sound. Further south, explorers will find Paradise Bay and Port Lockroy, as well as the Melchior Islands and Lemaire Channel beneath. Cruising through the serene polar waters along dramatic straits and narrow canals, voyagers to this spellbinding peninsula have the chance to observe Antarctic wildlife at its best - from gentle penguins and whales to apex predators like leopard seals and orcas.
On the eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula, lies the Weddell Sea. Discovered by the British sealer James Weddell in 1823, this part of the continent is known for its extraordinary silence, enchanting atmosphere and unequaled serenity. Amongst the white stillness, explorers may encounter an abundance of animals including Minke Whales, Weddell, and Crabeater Seals, as well as the miniature Adelie Penguins. The vast and imposing Larsen Ice Shelf covers the edges of the Weddell Sea and towers above those that pass. The ice shelf itself calves off monstrous tabular icebergs which then float north through the depths. Such is the purity of this natural source that scientists have declared the Weddell Sea’s water to be the clearest of any sea on Earth, equivalent to distilled water.
