MAGELLAN EXPLORER

Experience Antarctica from the privacy of an expedition yacht, cruising between immense glaciers, sculpted icebergs and remote snow-covered islands. This five-day itinerary explores the South Shetland Islands and northern Antarctic Peninsula, with days shaped around scenic passages, sheltered anchorages, wildlife encounters and tender exploration. With conditions changing constantly, the captain can adapt the route each day to find the most rewarding and navigable waters.

The Antarctic Peninsula delivers one of the world’s most remote yacht expeditions, where immense glaciers, sculpted icebergs and snow-covered mountains rise directly from the Southern Ocean. Beginning in Ushuaia, this eight-day voyage crosses the Drake Passage before exploring sheltered bays and wildlife-rich landing sites along the peninsula. Each day is shaped by ice and weather conditions, with Zodiac excursions, wildlife observation and time ashore replacing the fixed schedules of a conventional yacht charter.

This 4-day Antarctica yacht charter itinerary explores the South Shetland Islands, starting and ending at King George Island. The route visits Barrientos Island and Half Moon Island, combining penguin encounters, dramatic polar scenery, and Zodiac excursions. Weather and ice conditions permitting, enjoy guided shore landings and wildlife watching, with time onboard to take in Antarctica’s remote surroundings.
