Antarctica 2026

 

Departing from Ushaia on Aurora Expeditions newest ship the ‘Douglas Mawson’ we sailed across the Drake Passage to the Antarctic Peninsula. We spent 5 days exploring the area, including zodiac boat cruises and landings at Fournier Bay on Anvers Island, Melchior Islands, Cuverville Island, Hydrurga Rocks on Two Hummock Island, Cierva Cove in Hughes Bay, Deception Island and Elephant Island. My place on the trip was arranged for me by the wildlife travel company Wildlife Worldwide.
