Sub-Antarctic Islands (Georgia/Orcadas/Sandwich)

The Sub-Antarctic islands surround Antarctica and are located in the Antarctic Circle. The weather is generally cold with persistent winds. Tundra prevails but there are variations on the vegetation according to latitude and altitude on each of the islands. These programs to Antarctica are more complete than traditional programs reaching the Antarctic Peninsula exclusively and disembarking only on the South Shetland Islands. These programs travel beyond the South Shetland Islands, sailing as far as the Falklands Islands, the South Orkney Islands, the South Sandwich Islands and the South Georgia Islands – the epic location for Ernest Shackleton's unique and historic feat. There are even adventure programs travelling exclusively to the South Georgia Island for the unique experience of kayaking and skiing on Antarctic snow. These programs are highly recommended for ski lovers.
