Antarctic Cruise - from Puerto Williams - 81777

South Georgia is the second-largest and most mountainous of the sub-antarctic islands. Impressive peaks standing up to 3,000 m high are part of the Andes Bend from Tierra del Fuego to the Antarctic Peninsula. South Georgia is a paradise for ornithologists: around 60 species of birds live here, approximately 30 of which also nest on the island. A visit to the historic whaling station of Grytviken and the museum is particularly interesting. The simple grave of the Polar hero Sir Ernest Shackleton is a reminder of his famous expeditions. You can see the majestic wandering albatross on a visit to the island of Prion, as well as gentoo penguins, elephant seals and fur seals. The island of Salisbury Plain has the largest breeding site for king penguins in South Georgia.
