Morning
Zodiac
Expedition
Waking
up
to
a
world
of
white
that
floats
on
a
deep
blue
sea
is
an
experience
unlike
any
other.
Lighting
the
world
for
20
hours
each
day,
the
Antarctic
sun
is
already
high
in
the
sky,
glinting
off
towering
glaciers
and
snow-capped
peaks.
It
would
be
hard
to
find
a
morning
view
better
than
this.
With
this
magnificent
scenery
beckoning,
it's
time
to
pull
on
your
wet
weather
gear
and
head
out
to
explore
those
distant
glaciers.
Down
at
the
Marine
Platform,
you
tug
on
your
beanie
and
jump
aboard
a
Zodiac
bound
for
crisp
white
peaks.
As
you
speed
through
the
fresh
cool
air,
weaving
in
and
out
of
icebergs,
you
can
spot
the
captivating
locals
–
penguins,
seals
and
whales.
Lunch
Back
on
board,
lunch
is
enjoyed
with
sensational
views
at
either
the
Gastronomic
Restaurant
or
the
Grill
Restaurant,
where
those
wanting
to
be
closer
to
nature
can
dine
al
fresco.
Afternoon
Shore
Landing
After
lunch,
the
captain
steers
towards
a
chinstrap
penguin
rookery
and
it's
time
to
hop
back
aboard
the
Zodiacs.
Landing
nearby,
you
step
out
onto
the
soft
crunch
of
the
ice.
The
penguins,
unfazed
by
your
arrival,
continue
their
lives
as
you
wander
around,
taking
some
truly
unique
holiday
snaps.
Back
at
the
ship,
people
have
just
gathered
in
the
Lounge
when
an
announcement
causes
everyone
to
rush
excitedly
to
the
deck
–
orcas
have
been
spotted.
After
watching
them
leap
and
play
in
the
waves,
it's
off
to
the
lecture
theatre
where
an
informal
talk
teaches
you
more
about
this
spellbinding
place.
Dinner
This
evening,
stories
are
shared
and
moments
remembered
with
new-found
friends
over
a
delicious
dinner
in
the
Gastronomic
Restaurant.
"Luxury Expedition Ships of 200 passengers
like APT use really do this incredible region
justice. The possibilities are endless."
