Antarctica Travel Guide

Posted: Sep 23, 2009 |Comments: 0 |

The ice shelves and mountain ranges in Antarctica make you recognise the enormity of nature and the frailties of human life. To put it very simply, Antarctica is a stunning destination. The continent that is, even today, uninhabited (only scientists and other members at research stations comprise the temporary human inhabitants) leaves you spellbound with its breathtaking natural beauty. Although you’ll feel out of place, for hardly anyone (seals and penguins included) will notice you, more visitors to Antarctica have come thanking they chose this destination over others.

Places to see in Antarctica

Falkland Islands: Spectacular is the word to describe the Falkland Islands, a popular destination amongst Antarctica Cruises.With its vast population of albatrosses, seals and penguins, the Falkland Islands are sure to leave a memorable picture in your mind. Sheep are also abundant and outnumber Falklanders by 200 to 1. Some of the must visit destinations on the Falkland Islands include the Falkland Islands Museum (located in Stanley), Sea Lion Island (you can spot all five species of penguins on Falklands Islands here) and Steeple Jason (home to the world’s largest colony of black – browed albatrosses). You’ll also not want to miss a chance to meet and share a drink with the locals at one of Stanley’s lovely pubs.

Antarctica Cruises

An Antarctic cruise could well be the single most memorable experience of your life. Although Antarctica cruises from Australia and New Zealand are the longest, they are also amongst the most exciting. Cruising to Antarctica involves cruising in all sorts of weathers and temperatures. http://www.travelprojects.com.au offers Antarctica cruises from Australia – find more details on their website.
