Day 1

Day 1 image

Embark in Ushuaia

Our Antarctic adventure begins in Ushuaia, Argentina’s southernmost city. Board the our cruise ship in the afternoon and meet the expedition staff and lecturers who will accompany us throughout the voyage, sharing their knowledge of Antarctica’s wildlife, landscapes and history.

Settle into our cabin and take time to familiarize yourself with the ship, from the observation lounge and library to the outdoor decks. As the ship departs, head out on deck to watch the shores of Tierra del Fuego slip past. Sail along the famous Beagle Channel and through scenic Mackinlay Pass, enjoying your first evening aboard as you begin the voyage south toward Antarctica.

Meals included: dinner

Day 2 and 3

Day 2 and 3 image

Cross the Drake Passage to the South Shetland Islands

Head south across the legendary Drake Passage, named after the explorer Sir Francis Drake. During the crossing, pass through the Antarctic Convergence, where cold Antarctic waters meet warmer northern waters. This nutrient-rich transition supports an abundance of marine life and marks an important boundary for many Antarctic seabirds.

Join the expedition lecturers on deck to identify albatrosses and other seabirds following the ship, and keep watch for whales. A program of onboard lectures introduces the region you are approaching, helping you understand the wildlife, environment and history you will encounter. The USHUAIA’s open bridge policy also offers opportunities to observe the officers at work, learn about navigation and watch the changing seascape as we travel toward Antarctica.

Our first sightings of icebergs and snow-covered mountains announce your approach to the South Shetland Islands. If crossing conditions are favorable, the expedition team may arrange a first landing on Day 3, offering an introduction to the penguins, seals and landscapes of this remarkable region.

Meals included: breakfast, lunch and dinner

Days 4-7

Discover Penguin Colonies, Glaciers and Antarctic Waterways

Spend four days exploring the South Shetland Islands and Antarctic Peninsula, where mountains rise above sheltered waterways, glaciers reach the sea and icebergs take on extraordinary shapes and shades. Shore landings and Zodiac excursions provide opportunities to experience these landscapes and their wildlife, accompanied by the ship’s expedition staff and naturalists.

The South Shetland Islands support large penguin colonies, Antarctic fur seals and southern elephant seals. Depending on conditions and the route selected, exploration may include Livingston Island, home to gentoo and chinstrap penguins, or Deception Island, where a narrow entrance leads into a flooded volcanic caldera. King George Island, the largest island in the group, supports a variety of seabirds and scientific stations operated by several countries. Along the Antarctic Peninsula, keep watch for Weddell, crabeater and leopard seals, as well as humpback and minke whales and orcas.

From the decks and Zodiacs, take in a changing panorama of glaciers, rocky headlands and drifting ice, with the expedition team helping you identify wildlife and interpret the surroundings. Ice conditions permitting, the ship hopes to navigate waterways such as the Gerlache Strait, Neumayer Channel and Lemaire Channel, where steep mountain walls and glaciers frame the passage. Possible landing locations include Paradise Bay, where the team may attempt a landing on the Antarctic mainland, together with Cuverville Island, Portal Point, Neko Harbour, Pléneau Island, the Melchior Islands and Petermann Island. If the route leads through the Antarctic Sound, a possible visit to Paulet Island offers the chance to observe Adélie penguins and blue-eyed cormorants, alongside the remains of a stone survival hut built by members of the Nordenskjöld expedition in 1903. A scientific-station visit may also be possible if time and access permit. The expedition team aims to make at least two landings per day during this exploration period, subject to conditions. The sequence and choice of sites remain flexible, allowing the captain and expedition leader to respond to weather, ice and wildlife opportunities.

Meals included: breakfast, lunch, and dinner

Sail North across the Drake Passage

Leave Antarctica behind and begin the return crossing of the Drake Passage toward Ushuaia. Continue exploring from the ship’s decks, joining the lecturers and naturalists to search for seabirds and whales along the way.

Final lectures and presentations offer opportunities to build on what you have seen and learned throughout the expedition. Between activities, enjoy time in the observation lounge or library. As the ship travels north, take time to reflect on the landscapes, wildlife encounters and shared experiences of your Antarctic voyage.

Meals included: breakfast, lunch, and dinner
