The vast majority of cruises to Antarctica visit the Antarctica Peninsula, as it is the most accessible point in Antarctica (and arguably the most picturesque) reached from Patagonia at the southern tip of South America via either Ushuaia, Argentina or Punta Arenas, Chile. Cruises frequently visit the South Shetland Islands, especially King George, location of the airport that receives travelers flying from Chile to begin their Antarctic cruise. The majority of cruises traverse the western side of the Peninsula, except cruises to the Weddell Sea. Highlilghts of cruises on the western side include Deception Island, Neko Harbor, The Lamaire Channel, Port Lockroy and Paradise Bay. Expect massive icebergs, jagged mountain peaks, glaciers crashing into the sea, amazing wildlife like penguins, seals, whales & much more.
