During this journey, we traveled to the following places:
That's a total of 8,500+ miles (13,689km) traveled!
We voyaged to, around and from Antarctica on the Quark Expeditions ship called the Ocean Endeavour. While in Antarctica, we traveled around the Peninsula in either a zodiac boat or by sea-kayak.
The landscape, wildlife and environment of Wilhelmina Bay really stood out. We kayaked through the brash ice in Wilhelmina (we called it, “Whale-amina”) Bay while snow fell and humpback whales breached the surface and fed around us. Wilhelmina Bay is enclosed by stunning mountainous glacial landscapes. While we were there, we also saw massive floating icebergs that dwarfed us as we kayaked past them. It was absolutely surreal.
