Overview

Antarctica is a realm of untamed wilderness, surreal beauty, and extreme adventure, offering a yachting experience unlike any other. From the towering glaciers and sculpted icebergs to the vast colonies of penguins and awe-inspiring marine life, a yacht charter in Antarctica takes you on a journey through one of the most remote and untouched regions on Earth.

Picture cruising through the pristine, ice-filled waters of Antarctica, where towering glaciers, sculpted icebergs, and snow-covered peaks create a landscape unlike any other. Navigate the breathtaking Lemaire Channel, surrounded by sheer cliffs and drifting sea ice, or anchor near the remote islands of the Weddell Sea, home to vast colonies of Emperor and Adélie penguins. Witness humpback whales breaching in the icy waters, explore historic expedition sites, and experience the otherworldly silence of the frozen wilderness. Whether you’re marveling at the ethereal glow of the midnight sun or stepping onto a secluded ice shelf, every moment in Antarctica is an adventure into the last great frontier on Earth.

"We are back from our arctic adventure and had a wonderful time. Martin was a great guide, and the sun was shining almost every day. We saw all of the wildlife we expected, including the most unique narwhale sighting imaginable."

Explore the beauty of the Antarctic Peninsula

The Antarctic Peninsula offers a surreal blend of towering glaciers, icy peaks, and pristine seascapes. This remote stretch of the southern continent is a dream for expedition cruising, with dramatic coastlines, vast ice shelves, and abundant wildlife. Sailing through these frozen channels, you can explore iconic locations like Paradise Bay, the Lemaire Channel, and Deception Island, each showcasing stark beauty—from shimmering blue icebergs to colonies of penguins and breaching whales amid silent, snow-covered wilderness.

South Shetland Islands

The South Shetland Islands are a remote, windswept archipelago lying about 120 km (75 miles) north of the Antarctic Peninsula. Reaching them by yacht is a bold and adventurous feat, as most travelers arrive via expedition ships.

The voyage across the tumultuous Drake Passage heightens the sense of isolation and awe, rewarding sailors with dramatic volcanic landscapes, glacier-draped peaks, and thriving wildlife colonies set against an otherworldly polar backdrop.

Weddell Sea

The Weddell Sea is one of the most remote and formidable regions in Antarctica, located east of the Antarctic Peninsula. Arriving by yacht is an ambitious endeavor, as few vessels brave its dense sea ice and unpredictable conditions.

The journey, often through the ice-choked Antarctic Sound, adds a raw sense of exploration. Those who reach it are rewarded with towering tabular icebergs, vast ice shelves, and rare encounters with emperor penguins and leopard seals in an awe-inspiring, frozen expanse.
