When To Visit
The best time to visit Antarctica is from November to March, when the temperatures are milder and the days are longer. During this time, the sea ice surrounding the continent breaks up, creating open waterways that allow ships to navigate closer to the shore. This makes it easier to access some of Antarctica’s more remote parts and get up close to the wildlife.
In November, the ice is still breaking up, and visitors can witness the arrival of the first penguin chicks. December and January are the peak months for visiting Antarctica, with warmer temperatures, 24-hour daylight, and the chance to see whales and seals as they hunt for food. February and March offer slightly cooler temperatures but still plenty of wildlife and the added bonus of seeing the penguin chicks grow and fledge.
Visitors should book their trip well in advance to secure their spot and ensure they have the best possible experience in this stunning and remote wilderness.
