The few travellers who are fortunate enough to explore Antarctica’s vast expanses return home forever changed by an experience so awe-inspiring that it reaches to their very core.

Antarctic Kayaking

Nothing connects you to the blissful solitude and fragile beauty of the polar regions like paddling through them in a low-slung kayak. Kayaking excursions depend on the weather, but we’ll try our best to get you out as much as possible. Participants should come with a working knowledge of strokes, entries, and exits.

*Kayaking and camping excursions are only available for booking prior to departure, as space is limited. To add either of these excursions to your Antarctica cruise, simply call us and reference your booking number.

Antarctic Camping

Experience the sounds of heaving ice, the fresh scent of the sea, and the crisp air of Antarctica in the polar night by camping out on the ice itself. We provide all the tents, warm sleeping bags, and other equipment.
