DAY 4: Exploring the Antarctic Peninsula & Crossing the Antarctic Circle — Captain’s Choice
The Captain and expedition team will work together to bring you to the most unbelievable scenes and safely close to incredible wildlife. Your first exploration may be a shore landing on the search for a penguin rookery or a Zodiac safari navigating the wondrous icebergs. Enter what feels like another world in a space rarely navigated as you cross the 66th parallel. When you do make the Antarctic Circle crossing, you join the Order of the Red Nose with a great celebration and an unbeatable feeling of triumph. Be open to whatever the day brings you!

CAPTAIN’S CHOICE: The Antarctic Circle Crossing may be attempted on a different date during the expedition than indicated on the itinerary due to changing conditions. Your Captain will expertly navigate ice floes, icebergs, and changing sea and weather conditions to ensure you experience the most from your expedition. Each day is a new adventure filled with a spontaneous sense of exploration as your Captain works with our expedition team to determine possible shore landings and Zodiac safaris. All itinerary routes serve as examples and are subject to change based on current conditions, prioritizing the safety and optimal expedition experience for all guests.

DAY 5–10: Exploring the Antarctic Peninsula — Captain’s Choice
Continue your explorations of the Seventh Continent, guided by the migrations of whales, seals, sea birds and penguins. Your expedition team may bring you on a Zodiac safari to the remains of a shipwreck in Foyn Harbor or take you to optimal viewpoints for the perfect photo on a shore landing. You may even be the first explorers to make a landing at an unrecorded site and lay claim to the feat. The change from day to day is part of the adventure.

DAY 11

DAY 11: Exploring the South Shetland Islands & Antarctic Peninsula — Captain’s Choice
Part of the greater Antarctica region, the South Shetlands contain plenty of wildlife, scenic landscapes, hiking opportunities and magnificent viewpoints that inspire a sense of discovering another world.
