Ports of call in Antarctica

A cruise to Antarctica is like no other and it is different every time: crossing the Drake Passage, the sharp beauty of the Falkland Islands, the emperor penguins of the Weddell Sea, the fiery temperament of Ushuaia, Port Lockroy and its southernmost post office in the world, the colonies of penguins in South Georgia, the subantarctic islands are all must-see destinations.

A glacier is a large persistent body of ice that moves slowly over land.
