While we can’t guarantee that we will see them, we will do our best to get a good view of these enchanting creatures.

Programs may vary depending on local ice and weather conditions and in order to take advantage of opportunities to see wildlife. The on-board expedition leader determines the final itinerary. Itineraries may mention places that require permission to land, which must be granted by the relevant national authorities. Such permission is not granted prior to the publishing of these itineraries. Flexibility is paramount for expedition cruises. Average cruising speed of m/v Janssonius is 10,5 knots. Birding: - We will have at least one dedicated expedition guide in our team who will share their expert knowledge about bird species and who will be available to help you identify, photograph on deck and learn more about the birds that we see. In addition to outdoor sessions, our guide will focus on species and related information on the birds of the Antarctic in re-caps and lectures onboard. Day 1: Sandy Argentine beaches You embark from Puerto Madryn in the afternoon, your prow aimed for the Falkland Islands. Golfo Nuevo is renowned for its visiting southern right whales, so you have a good chance of spotting one as you sail toward the open ocean. Day 2 – 3: Sea life, sea birds Though you’re now at sea, there’s rarely a lonesome moment here.

  • Hiking and Snowshoeing E General Information for Passengers
    Hiking and Snowshoeing e General information for passengers • We offer hikes on all our voyages • Both in the Arctic and in Antarctica we offer dedicated hiking and snowshoe voyages • On all of our ships (except on our sailing-vessel Noorderlicht) in the Arctic there are options of 2 to 3 different guided walks per landing (easy to challenging) • Walks vary in length, difficulty and distance and meters climbed: there are always walks that suit your ability! • On hiking voyages to Antarctica we aim at one or two hikes per day. The longest hike can take up to two hours • On hiking voyages to the Arctic we also offer several full day walks with packed-lunch • We offer free rental of lightweight snowshoes and rubber boots with good walking profile on m/v Plancius • There is no extra charge for hiking: please see our dates for dedicated hiking and snowshoe voyages Oceanwide Expeditions has been a pioneer in expedition cruises in the Arctic and Antarctica for many years now. We feel at home on land as much as on the sea! As we carry several guides on board our motor vessels we can split up passengers into smaller groups for landings. In this way we can guarantee a “small group” travel experience with like-minded travel companions, also for the hikers. In Antarctica we have been successfully offering a Weddell Sea hiking expedition and in Spitsbergen snowshoe expeditions with our sailing-vessel Noorderlicht for several years now. As more and more people are getting interested in active voyages, Oceanwide Expeditions is now offering more voyages with an extended hiking option.

  • Falkland Islands, South Georgia, & Antarctica
    BIRDWATCHING IN Falkland Islands, South Georgia, & Antarctica November 2008 Erik Mølgaard, Marianne Mølgaard & Eleonora “Ellie” Ilieva DOF TRAVEL DANISH ORNITHOLOGICAL SOCIETY BIRDLIFE DENMARK INTRODUCTION In November 2008, DOF Travel Danish Ornithological Society (DOF) carried out its second tour to Falkland Islands, South Georgia, and the Antarctic. On this cruise we chartered the entire ship and we had the incredible number of 51 clients onboard. A ship full of birders is a dream condition. Hence, we could plan a trip with top priority on birds and wildlife. This is the main reason that we got such a successful tour. Being a birder you must choose a cruise visiting Falkland Islands and South Georgia. These locations hold huge colonies of Albatrosses and King Penguins. At sea you will also see a great variety of seabird species; especially the ocean between Falklands and South Georgia is very productive. A rather small vessel taking around 50 passengers is perfect as it is per- mitted to visit all the accessible sites, and it will not be too crowded onshore. The time of the year was selected to get best opportunity to see seabirds and enjoy the early spring on the islands. In addition this is the part of the season you get the best offers from the cruise operators. The weather conditions during this cruise were changeable. We had nice and sunny weather on most of the landings at Falkland Islands and South Georgia. At the Antarctic we had the most beautiful weather with bright sun and no wind at Brown Bluff and at the pack ice at Bou- chard Strait.
