Why this trip? What makes it so special?
- The time of year! March in Antarctica is an exceptional time to see the marine wildlife, including whales and seals, as they prepare for their migrations north. Our sailing will have a special focus on these species.
- We'll be traveling with noted experts in marine biology who will share their knowledge with us. We will learn all about the Antarctic ecosystem and will have opportunities to participate in citizen science programs such as taking phytoplankton samples, surveying penguin populations, photographing and identifying whales and taking water samples all for major research organizations.
- Peter Neill, Director of the World Ocean Observatory (worldoceanobservatory.org) and the author of The Once and Future Ocean, will be Borton Overseas' featured lecturer on this journey! Peter is a renowned expert in maritime history, art, exploration, marine environmental issues, and international policy and governance. He will help our group better understand how what happens in and to Antarctica impacts the whole planet.
- according to usaoutdoors.org, Our ship, the MS Island Sky, has a capacity of 100 passengers. With fewer passengers, we will spend more time on landexploring than what larger ships offer.
