Antarctica - Sailing through the Gerlache strait
Embarking on a boat trip through the Gerlache Strait promises an unforgettable journey with one breathtaking sight after another. This incredible waterway, situated on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, is enveloped by glistening icebergs, with towering mountain peaks gracing the horizon. As you navigate these pristine waters, you'll witness large whales serenely gliding through the sea in pursuit of their favorite prey, krill. It's no wonder that the Gerlache Strait is often hailed as the most beautiful place in Antarctica.
Worth seeing
Take the time to soak in the unparalleled views that are truly unique to this remote location. You can also witness a dramatic piece of Antarctic history. The wreckage of the Norwegian ship "Guvernören" still remains visible at Whilhemina Bay. In 1916, the ship was intentionally grounded after a fire to allow the crew to escape. You can reach the wreck using zodiac boats or, if you're into diving, get up close to the ship underwater. The clear visibility and relatively shallow depth make it an accessible and fascinating dive for those interested in exploring Antarctic maritime history.
