The programme may vary depending on ice, weather and wildlife conditions. Landings are subject to site availability, permits and environmental concerns as per IAATO regulations. Official sailing plans and landing slots are scheduled with IAATO prior to the start of the season, but the expedition leader determines the final plan. Flexibility is paramount for expedition cruising. The average cruising speed for our vessel is 10.5 knots.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beyond the Arctic Circle: Wilkins Ice Shelf<\/strong><br \/>\nThe trip is a real expedition, exploring the rarely visited region of the Bellingshausen Sea, Marguerite Bay and Alexander Island. We visit the places discovered by De Gerlache on his polar expedition (June 1887 - March 1899) on board the Belgica. This voyage departs from Ushuaia and heads directly to the Antarctic Circle, our aim is to spend the entire voyage south of this latitude. The variety of landings, remoteness and wildlife experience in this region are rivalled by very few places on earth.<br \/>\nWe will see Antarctic ice shelves, land on islands where very few have been able to go down and enjoy this impressive spectacle far from the regular paths of the Antarctic.<br \/>\nAntarctic expedition cruises. We will see a wide variety of Antarctic wildlife such as Humpback and Minke whales, killer whales, leopards, elephants, crabeaters, Weddell and Antarctic fur seals, and even Ross seals. Gentoo and Adelie penguins, skuas, terns and giant petrels are just some of the species to be seen.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"product-crumbs full\">\n<li class=\"lang\">Languages: English<\/li>\n<li class=\"duracion\">Duration: 16 days<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2624 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/terramar.tur.ar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/antartida-wilkins-2-Terramar.jpg\" alt=\"antarctica wilkins 7\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/terramar.tur.ar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/antartida-wilkins-2-Terramar.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/terramar.tur.ar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/antartida-wilkins-2-Terramar-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/terramar.tur.ar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/antartida-wilkins-2-Terramar-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/terramar.tur.ar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/antartida-wilkins-2-Terramar-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/terramar.tur.ar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/antartida-wilkins-2-Terramar-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Una expedici\u00f3n \u00fanica m\u00e1s all\u00e1 del C\u00edrculo Polar Ant\u00e1rtico, explorando lugares remotos como el Mar de Bellingshausen y la Bah\u00eda de Marguerite.
