Meaningful nature adventures can’t happen in big crowds. Lindblad's expedition ships in Antarctica offer an exhilarating, up-close experience of the southern ice and the abundant wildlife of the White Continent. Their small size makes them nimble enough to access protected coves and channels that big ships can’t reach, while full stabilization and state-of-the-art technology make them exceptionally safe. The ship you sail aboard will depend upon the itinerary and departure you choose. Each polar vessel ensures personal access to naturalists, lecturers,staff and crew. - Benefit from More than a Half-Century of Expertise
This is a genuine expedition-style experience aboard an authentic expedition ship with a seasoned polar adventure team. As pioneers in opening Antarctica to civilian travelers, Lindblad draws upon more than 50 years of experience navigating polar seas, assuring safe passage and an immersive adventure in one of the planet’s wildest landscapes. You’ll benefit from traveling with a company whose stellar reputation has been carefully earned over decades. - Tap Multiple Tools for Immersive Expedition Travel
Tandem kayaks deploy quickly and allow for close-up exploration among the sculptural majesty of Antarctica’s icebergs. A fleet of 13 Zodiacs and 32 double kayaks lets us cruise near penguins, leopard seals and marine mammals along the bays and coastlines of the Antarctic Peninsula. A mobile platform enables fast, safe deployment of kayaks within minutes of finding an anchorage, with plenty of kayaks for personal encounters with the ice and its creatures at your own pace. Led by veteran Expedition Leaders, hikes and activities on shore are accessible at a variety of physical exertion levels. A remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) and undersea interpretive specialist give passengers a rare opportunity to view Antarctica’s seldom-seen underwater world. An onboard National Geographic photographer helps ensure you get the best shots. - See the Undersea
Unique to Lindblad, each voyage hosts an undersea specialist who suits up for polar waters, dives to capture vivid HD video footage, and shares it on plasma screens in the ship’s lounge. Going even deeper, the ship’s hydrophone lets passengers listen in on whales while a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) capable of exploring depths up to 1,000 feet films the places where no diver can go. The ROV and polardives provide a rare journey into the virtually unknown Antarctic undersea, while you enjoy the underwater expedition from a warm and dry spot onboard . For the bird’s eye view, a remote-controlled crow’s nest camera broadcasts real-time footage on individual cabin video screens. - Sail with Top Experts Who Specialize in Antarctica
