This Peregrine journey takes us to one of the world’s most awe inspiring destinations. With visits along the way through the South Shetland Islands we arrive on the mainland, on the Antarctic Peninsula and are dazzled by perhaps the most dramatic scenery to be found
anywhere on earth.

From our boats we’ll observe an impressive array of icebergs in many different shapes and sizes

Sailing aboard our well-appointed Peregrine expedition vessel, we see Antarctic nature in all its glory. These areas boast an extraordinary abundance of wildlife, including five seal species and massive penguin rookeries of gentoo, Adelies and chinstraps as well as a profusion of seabirds from albatross to skuas. A wildlife highlight may well be watching a variety of magnificent whale species in close proximity as they crest the surface of the waves.

On this exciting expedition, we have the opportunity to thoroughly explore the South Shetland region and Antarctic Peninsula searching out breathtaking bays and islands, and marvelling at extraordinary natural wonders. We’ll also hope to travel further into the polar regions than on any other Peregrine expedition, journeying as far as the Antarctic Circle at 66* 33’ south.

This voyage is Peregrine’s most complete and varied Antarctic adventure. It promises an in-depth and unforgettable experience to the bottom of the world travelling to the extraordinary Falkland Islands and diverse sub-Antarctic islands before sailing further south to the remarkable Antarctic Peninsula area.

The Rockhopper penguins are small, aggressive, crested penguins (genus Eudyptes), so named because of the way they hop from boulder to boulder when moving around their rocky colonies

Our first stop is the Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic Ocean. This far-flung group of islands lies north of the Antarctic Convergence and enjoys a relatively warmer climate than our other destinations. As a result, the mainly uninhabited Falklands support unique wildlife not found further south, including sixty species of migratory birds as well as the rare rockhopper penguin.
