ANTARCTICA
Antarctica is an ecological wonder that has bewitched explorers, scientists and voyagers alike for centuries.
The existence of Antarctica was surmised by the Greeks in 400 B.C. like a large mass of earth located south, opposite the one known to exist in the north. After many centuries of adventure and expeditions, the first inroads in Antarctic waters were done in 1675 by the English merchant seaman Anthony de la Roche. Other adventurers gave shape to the map of Antarctica, which now bears their names in their memory.
This fascinating territory contains more than 90% of the earth’s land ice, which transforms it into the largest fresh water reserve on earth. Among the main species that make up marine Antarctic fauna are whales, seals, penguins as well as a variety of sea birds. Your adventure to the seventh continent will allow you to meet these incredible creatures while enjoying the indelible scenery of mountainous glaciers and roaming icebergs. Antarctica’s unparalleled beauty and extreme climate conditions make this one of the most exotic destinations in the world.
