Map for 11-Night Ushuaia Roundtrip  3.8.27

March ushers in the final days of Antarctic summer, alive with penguins, whales, and seals.

It’s during this time you see Gentoo penguin chicks swimming in shallow waters in the Peninsula. Getting their last fill of krill, humpback whales are also more likely to show off and play, creating spectacular scenes to capture on camera. Listen for the mating song of leopard seals as they begin courting. Navigating amid ice floes on Zodiac safaris or a kayaking excursion, it’s as up-close and personal as you can get to the Seventh Continent.

Although its nickname the "End of the World" - derived from its location along the southernmost tip of South America among the Tierra del Fuego archipelago - Ushuaia is far from the end of any adventure. Where the Andes meet the Beagle Channel and the snow-capped Martial Mountains sit behind a sprawling city of colorful buildings, lies a lively town ready and waiting to take you on the thrill ride of a lifetime. Scenes like Parque Yatana give you the chance to immerse yourself in the rich, indigenous culture.

More than a route across the Southern Ocean, the legendary Drake Passage is an iconic part of the expedition experience. Follow in the wake of history’s great explorers as albatrosses soar overhead, whales may surface alongside the yacht, and the Antarctic Convergence marks your passage into one of the world’s most remarkable marine ecosystems. Whether crossed once or twice, the Drake is more than a journey between destinations—it’s a defining chapter of every unforgettable Antarctic expedition.
