Antarctica : Regal Antarctica

Departures: December 2012 Duration: 11 nights Price: from £6,527

This unique voyage is the ideal way to celebrate the festive season as you cruise in search of two of the most eye-catching of all penguin species – emperors and kings. Visit Antarctica’s Weddell Sea, home to emperor penguins and spectacular tabular icebergs, before continuing to visit the king penguins of the Falkland Islands.

 

Introduction

Sailing from Ushuaia, spend time exploring the South Shetland Islands before cruising amongst the mighty icebergs of the Antarctic Sound en route to the Weddell Sea.

Made famous by Shackleton’s legendary Endurance expedition, highlights here include the huge colony of Adelie penguins on Paulet Island and the elusive emperors that may be found near Snow Hill Island.

Learn about the Weddell Sea’s fascinating history of polar exploration before turning north to the Falkland Islands. The Falklands offer a wealth of wildlife experiences, including rockhopper, gentoo, Magellanic and king penguins
