Spirit of Antarctica: Whale Migration
About This Itinerary
Embrace the spirit of polar exploration on this classic expedition to the coveted white continent. Sail across the famed Drake Passage to and from Antarctica, admiring spectacular seabirds and approaching the ice as the explorers of old did: by sea. Search for wildlife on a Zodiac cruise, aim to set foot on the continent and choose from a range of adventure options. At this time of year humpback whales are peaking in numbers; learn more about our giants of the seas during an insightful talk by one of our marine biologists.
