Crossing the Antarctic Circle

  • Seals resting on icy Antarctic landscape

A memorable experience, crossing the Antarctic Circle is an honored milestone for polar explorers. At 66°33’ south of the equator and one of the five major latitude circles on earth, tradition dictates that explorers raise a glass as they venture to a world visited by only a rare few. South of the Antarctic Circle, the snow- and ice-covered landscapes seem more remote and more pristine as towering bergs and endless glaciers showcase the rawness of Antarctica, while surreal light conditions set the scene for this frozen frontier. An unforgettable experience for any traveler.
