2 Adventure Options You have a number of optional adventure activities to choose from on your Antarctic Explorer expedition. These options vary by departure, are all subject to availability and fill up quickly, so be sure to book yours early. PHOTOGRAPHY Antarctica is one of the most abundantly photogenic destinations in the world. Penguins amble across pebbled beaches, whales spy-hop from the crystal blue sea and sparkling icebergs tower in this serene, yet dramatic environment. Whether you own a serious SLR or a simple point-and-shoot, our on-board photography expert provides you with hands-on instruction and technical tips to ensure that you capture the best of your Antarctica experience. SOUTH GEORGIA AND THE ANTARCTIC PENINSULA EXPEDITION DOSSIER 2

3 Itinerary DAY 1 Ushuaia, Argentina The Tierra del Fuego archipelago is home to Ushuaia, at the southern tip of Patagonia. This scenic nature lover s playground has plenty of hiking trails to explore if you need to escape from all the tasty treats on offer at the many bakeries, shops, cafés and restaurants in town. Deception Island Paulet Island South Orkney Islands DAY 2 Embarkation Day This is a day for introductions and getting acquainted with your ship. Meet your fellow shipmates, be introduced to your Expedition Team and snap a few photographs of Ushuaia as you head to sea. DAYS 3 AND 4 At Sea Actual itinerary may vary based on conditions and voyage length Your Expedition Team will treat you to a number of fun and informative lectures during your time at sea. Reaching the Antarctic Convergence is your first taste of what makes polar travel special. Here, the cold Antarctic waters meet and mix with the warmer waters of the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic oceans, creating the abundance of marine life that attracts whales and other species to this part of the world. DAYS 5 TO 6 South Shetland Islands and Antarctic Peninsula Arriving in Antarctica is often a surprisingly emotional moment. Who knows how you ll react, but the general reaction is a sense of reverence and awe. No other place on earth is like Antarctica, which is a land of extremes. Complete silence in the middle of the day is something we re unaccustomed to in our busy lives, so Antarctica puts many people into a contemplative mood. But not for too long, as a calving glacier may break the silence or a penguin may come waddling by to inspect your footwear. Trekking up a glacier, visiting a research station or going on a Zodiac cruise amongst massive icebergs will become your daily activities. It won t take you long to tell the difference between Weddell, fur, crabeater and leopard seals either, which are all found in this part of Antarctica. Curious whales, such as minkes, are often attracted to Zodiacs as well, giving you a chance to get close to these majestic animals. Every journey is full of surprises, even for our experienced Expedition Team, which means your journey will be unlike any before, or after it. This is untamed, unscripted nature at its best!

4 DAYS 7 AND 8 At Sea Your next destination is South Georgia! In between presentations on the wildlife, history and geology of Antarctica, you can spend time chatting with your shipmates over a drink at the bar. If conditions allow, we may attempt landfall on the South Orkney Islands, our first official stop in Antarctica. DAYS 9 TO 10 South Georgia Once ruled by sealers and whalers, things have changed greatly on South Georgia. You ll be happy to see that the once exploited and nearly vanquished seal and whale populations are now thriving. Penguins abound here as well, with four different species to be on the lookout for. Some are a bit elusive, but the king penguins are impossible to miss, as their rookeries here number into the hundreds of thousands! Often referred to as the Galapagos of the Poles, South Georgia contains an exceptional quantity of wildlife. Each landing you make on South Georgia will open your eyes to a new wonder of wildlife, including the odd elephant seal. One significant and historic site that will be of interest is the grave of the great explorer, Sir Ernest Shackleton. You can visit his grave at the settlement of Grytviken, which is also home to an old whaling station, museum and a small gift shop, church and scientific research station. DAYS 11 AND 15 Crossing the Drake Passage Wave goodbye to the penguins as the ship turns northward towards home. Crossing the Drake Passage is considered your unofficial rite of passage, completing your Antarctic adventure. Enjoy some final moments mingling with your fellow travelers or listening to the expedition recaps from your Expedition Team. DAY 16 Disembark in Buenos Aires, Argentina After a final breakfast together, it is time to part ways. We will transfer you to the airport for your homeward flight or you can extend your journey in Buenos Aires, the Paris of South America. Important reminder: Embracing the unexpected is part of the legacy and excitement of expedition travel. There are no guarantees that we can achieve everything we set out to accomplish. A measure of flexibility is something all of us must bring to a voyage. There are nearly 200 recognized sites in the Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetlands and the places mentioned above may be changed to others equally as interesting.

6 South Georgia POSSIBLE LANDINGS AND WILDLIFE SIGHTINGS South Georgia is roughly 160 km (100 miles) by 32 km (20 miles) wide. When the legendary Captain Cook published his account of the area, he created a rush of interest in whaling and sealing on South Georgia and the Sandwich Islands. Today, penguins and seals are abundant once again. DRYGALSKI FJORD This is a photogenic and dramatic fjord, with sharp and jagged peaks rising out of the sea. Glaciation never reached the peaks of this fjord, giving it a unique landscape. GOLD HARBOUR The backdrop to this harbor is the hanging Bertrab Glacier. King and gentoo penguins call this home, as do rowdy elephant seals and fur seals. GRYTVIKEN Only a handful of people live, albeit temporarily, on South Georgia, a United Kingdom overseas territory. Two of them are curators of the South Georgia Museum, located in the former whaling station manager s villa. The church was built for the whaling community and is the only building in Grytviken that is still used for its original purpose. PRION ISLAND SALISBURY PLAIN One of the largest king penguin rookeries on the island is located on Salisbury Plain. The Murphy and Lucas Glaciers flank the plain, creating a perfect backdrop for photographers. ST. ANDREW S BAY About 75,000 breeding pairs of king penguin nest at St. Andrew s Bay. It is the largest king penguin rookery on South Georgia and is a wildlife spectacle to behold. Reindeer, introduced by Norwegian whalers, are known to feed on the grass in the area. STROMNESS This abandoned whaling station was in full operation the day that Ernest Shackleton and his companions staggered in after a 36-hour trek across the island. There is a small cemetery here, with the graves of 14 whalers. Robert Cushman Murphy named this island for the species of petrels that are seen on the island - Prion. Birders will be pleased to know that wandering albatross are also known to nest on the island. SOUTH GEORGIA AND THE ANTARCTIC PENINSULA EXPEDITION DOSSIER 6

7 Antarctic Peninsula POSSIBLE LANDINGS AND WILDLIFE SIGHTINGS Stepping foot on Antarctica is a moment of pleasure that affects each traveler differently. Your possible landing on Antarctica will take place in the Peninsula, which is an extension of the Transantarctic Mountain chain and is the most northern stretch of Antarctic land. Formed from uplifted submarine troughs that were filled with sediment about 220 million years ago, this is a dynamic land of both desolation and diversity. To the east is the frozen, wild Weddell Sea. To the west, howling winds and warming seas from the Southern Ocean create perfect conditions for whale sightings. BROWN BLUFF A possible exposed volcano, Brown Bluff towers 745 meters (2,225 feet) over the home of adélie and gentoo penguin rookeries, which number in the thousands. These penguins will create a symphony of background noise while you explore the bluff. DEVIL ISLAND The Swedish Antarctic Expedition of discovered this very narrow island, which is 1.6 km (1 mile) long and has a low summit at each end. Emperor penguins have been seen in this area before, but it will take a lot of luck to spot one on any voyage. SEYMOUR ISLAND HOPE BAY Three members of the Swedish Antarctic Expedition ( ) spent the winter in a hut on the shores of the bay here. Their hut is located close to the jetty of Esperanza Station, an Argentine research station that sometimes allows visitors. PAULET ISLAND Located in the northwestern Weddell Sea, the island is home to a large Adélie penguin rookery. With a volcanic cone 352 meters (1158 feet) high, Paulet Island reminds you that this was once a very active landscape. In addition to penguins, you may be interested in visiting a historic hut built by members of the Swedish Antarctic Expedition A cross marks the grave site of Ole Wennersgaard, a member of that team who died on the island. Northeast of Snow Hill Island is a smaller island that was, when first seen, mistaken for a cape. The island has had significant fossil finds dating back to the days of dinosaurs. Called the KT Boundary, a thin gray line was created 65 million years ago when a global catastrophic event occurred leading to the extinction of the dinosaurs. The KT Boundary is evident here and offers up great insights for scientists studying the dinosaurs. ANTARCTIC SOUND IMPORTANT REMINDER Embracing the unexpected is part of the legacy and excitement of expedition travel. There are no guarantees that we can achieve everything we set out to accomplish. A measure of flexibility is something all of us must bring to a voyage. There are nearly 200 recognized sites in the Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetlands and the places mentioned above may be changed to others equally as interesting. This large passage from Bransfield Strait to the Erebus and Terror Gulf is 48 km (30 miles) long and km (7-12 miles) wide. It runs northwest to southeast and is known to be a great place for viewing huge, tabular icebergs. SOUTH GEORGIA AND THE ANTARCTIC PENINSULA EXPEDITION DOSSIER 7

8 South Shetland Islands POSSIBLE LANDINGS AND WILDLIFE SIGHTINGS These islands will be your first sighting of land after Ushuaia, as the archipelago stretches for 540 km (335 miles) from northeast to southwest off the coast of Antarctica. The Bransfield Strait separates this archipelago from the Antarctic Peninsula. Nearly 200 years ago the islands were wiped clear of seals. Today, you ll see that the seal populations have recovered and the islands once again support an abundance of wildlife. AITCHO ISLANDS This is a group of small islands, some still unnamed, situated in the northern entrance of English Strait. You can often spot a great mix of wildlife here, with gentoo and chinstrap penguins having established rookeries. Southern elephant and fur seals are frequently hauled out here too. BAILY HEAD Also known as Rancho Point, this area is a rocky headland on the southeastern shore of Deception Island. Chinstrap penguins build nests on slopes leading to a high ridge that dominates the natural amphitheater and provides you with a superb setting for landscape photography. HALF MOON ISLAND This crescent-shaped island was known to sealers as early as Unlike sealers who liked to keep their best locations secret, we re happy to bring you ashore on this impressive island. Many Antarctic birds breed here including chinstrap penguins, shags, Wilson s storm petrels, kelp gulls, snowy sheathbills, Antarctic terns and skua. HANNAH POINT Macaroni, chinstrap and gentoo penguin rookeries are located on the point, which is on the south coast of Livingston Island. Due to the rather congested area available to the nesting penguins, you can only visit here from January 10 onwards. PENDULUM COVE Hot geothermal waters are found along the shoreline of this cove, named for observations made in 1829 by a British expedition. You may see yellow algae and boiled krill floating on the surface of the water, because of the scalding hot water! PENGUIN ISLAND Antarctica has two flowering plants, both of which you can find on Penguin Island: Deschampsia antarctica and Colobanthus quitensis. Chinstrap penguins, fur seals and southern elephant seals use the island for breeding purposes. ROBERT POINT A nice spot for Zodiac cruising, this point was known to sealers as early as Chinstrap penguins, kelp gulls and pintado breed and whales may be seen in the surrounding waters. TELEFON BAY Your Expedition Team will be happy to point out that it is here where the most recent evidence of volcanic eruption on Deception Island can be seen. TURRET POINT Chinstrap and Adélie penguin rookeries are found on this point, situated on the south coast of King George Island. You ll find the beaches here can get crowded with fur, southern elephant and Weddell seals hauled out on the rocks. WHALER S BAY To reach Whaler s Bay it is necessary to sail through a narrow passage called Neptune s Bellows. The bay was used by whalers from 1906 to 1931 and it is part of a protected harbor created by a circular flooded caldera, known as Deception Island. Along with waddling penguins and lounging seals, you ll see rusting remains of whaling operations on the beach. Watch for steam that may rise from geothermally heated water springs along the shoreline. SOUTH GEORGIA AND THE ANTARCTIC PENINSULA EXPEDITION DOSSIER 8

9 YANKEE HARBOUR Gentoo penguins have established a rookery on this harbor, which is situated on the southwest side of Greenwich Island. Here you can see an abandoned Argentine refuge hut and a large glacier that stretches along the east and north sides of the bay. An abandoned sealing try pot is all that remains of the activity that brought men thousands of miles in tall ships to seek their fortune.
