ANTARCTICA CRUISES

Antarctica lay undetected for most of recorded time, beyond the margins of the known world. Travel to Antarctica on a Seabourn luxury cruise ship, in a stye undreamed of by the ardent, early pioneers of the icy continent. Explore the snowy, sentinel mountain ranges, teeming penguin colonies and stately parades of monumental icebergs; the sight of an albatross effortlessly gliding across the ink-blue sea, and the unexpected rainbow appearing late into the nights of everlasting light. Let Seabourn take you on the experience of a lifetime to the world’s final frontier.

Seabourn Antarctica Experience

Each cruise to Antarctica includes the following exclusive amenities and activities designed to enhance every moment:

  • Inclusive zodiac tours and landings*
  • Digital photography workshops
  • Complimentary Seabourn expedition-grade parka and day pack
  • Opportunities for frequent wildlife sightings on ship and on shore
  • Onboard Expedition team providing narration and insight to all aspects of the experience
  • Inspiring Enrichment Program and special guest speakers on board

*Final itineraries are subject to weather, ice and other conditions and subject to change.

Featured Experiences

Forget rigid itineraries and follow a true call of the wild, one where Mother Nature dictates your next stop — be it a calving glacier, a pod of killer whales, or a lively penguin colony. Such flexibility turns each Seabourn expedition to Antarctica into a singular experience, so you can fully appreciate every wonder-filled moment.

Here is a sampling of some of the incredible landings we have been able to make over the past season:

Deception Island

Contemplate the ash-covered ice of Deception Island, its alien landscape a gradient of black, grey, and red as it urges you to look closer. Penguins gather at the edge of the beach, taking their turn plunging into the crashing surf, and underwater calderas glow up at guests through the waves.
