About Antarctica21
Antarctica21 specializes in fly-and-sail expeditions to the White Continent. Before Antarctica21, travelers who wanted to reach the Antarctic Peninsula had only one option: a two-day cruise across the notoriously rough seas of the Drake Passage. Since its founding in 2003, however, Antarctica21’s boutique expeditions have offered a more comfortable alternative. A two-hour flight takes guests from Punta Arenas, Chile, directly to King George Island, where they then board their expedition ship. No stormy crossing. No seasickness. Just quick, total immersion in the Antarctic experience. The company’s ships accommodate a maximum of 76 guests, offering an exclusive experience, flexibility, and access that larger vessels can’t match. Antarctica21 has been a CarbonNeutral® certified company since 2019 and is committed to innovation and sustainability in its entire operation.
