Day 4-10 Antarctica
Once we have crossed the Antarctic Convergence you will start feeling the air getting crisper and colder.

Hidden in the deep south of the Antarctic Peninsula we may visit places like Marguerite Bay, Fish Islands, The Gullet or Stonington. All of these sites are challenging to reach due to their remote and extreme locations. No permanent human inhabitants, millions of penguins, feeding area for thousands of whales. This continent is dedicated to science and peace. Nevertheless – words simply do not describe the feeling of being on the Great White Continent.
