  1. Day 1

    Puerto Williams, Chile

    Puerto Williams sits on Navarino Island, facing the Beagle Channel at the edge of Chilean Patagonia. Puerto Williams is often called the world’s southernmost city, set among sharp peaks, lenga forests and cold, open water. The Martín Gusinde Anthropological Museum traces the history of the Yaghan, whose ancestral homeland includes these channels. Beyond town, trails enter the Dientes de Navarino, a rugged range where wilderness begins almost at the doorstep.

  2. Day 2

    Drake Passage

    Few sea crossings carry the weight of the Drake Passage. Here, the Atlantic and Pacific meet between Cape Horn and Antarctica, and conditions can change quickly. Some voyages pass in calm water; others encounter the swells that made this route legendary. Watch from deck for albatrosses and petrels, then settle into the ship’s routines. The passage is no mere transfer: it is the first clear measure of Antarctica’s scale and remoteness.

  3. Day 4

    Antarctic Peninsula

    The Antarctic Peninsula brings you within reach of Antarctica’s most dramatic scenery: mountain-backed glaciers, blue icebergs and sheltered bays. Most voyages cross the Drake Passage from Ushuaia, then explore by expedition ship and Zodiac, weather permitting. Watch for gentoo, chinstrap and Adélie penguins, seals and whales. Shore visits follow strict environmental rules, and plans can change with conditions. Expect few comforts ashore; the reward is a rare encounter with a continent still governed by ice and weather.

  4. Day 8

    South Shetland Islands

    The South Shetland Islands lie just north of the Antarctic Peninsula, across the often-choppy Bransfield Strait. Here, black volcanic beaches, glaciers and penguin colonies bring Antarctica close and unmistakably wild. At Deception Island, ships enter a flooded volcanic caldera; elsewhere, research stations mark a human presence. Expect landings shaped by weather, sea ice and wildlife rules, with encounters that reward patience more than a schedule.

  5. Day 9

    Drake Passage

    Few sea crossings carry the weight of the Drake Passage. Here, the Atlantic and Pacific meet between Cape Horn and Antarctica, and conditions can change quickly. Some voyages pass in calm water; others encounter the swells that made this route legendary. Watch from deck for albatrosses and petrels, then settle into the ship’s routines. The passage is no mere transfer: it is the first clear measure of Antarctica’s scale and remoteness.
