Galapagos & Antarctica
Where to go, what to do?
Expedition
yacht charters
As increasingly opulent superyachts cruise the seven seas, explorer yacht charters have emerged as one of the fastest growing trends. With the assistance of a Professional charter broker, you can choose from thrilling options such as kayaking through calving glaciers and onto black-sand beaches in Antarctica or swimming with curious sea lions and enigmatic whale sharks in the Galapagos. This type of expedition yacht charter is available.
Antactica
As you sail through unsettling bays with calving glaciers and pass by whales and seals in the water, you will feel as if you have stepped right out of a National Geographic magazine.
Antarctica is one of the most difficult places to reach on Earth, and the only way to travel there in comfort is on a charter yacht. You will fly over enormous icebergs and migratory whale pods as you approach King George Island on the Antarctic Peninsula. Yet nothing can get you ready for the challenge that lies ahead of you in the planet’s last unexplored region. Between October and March, when the days are longer and the climate is more agreeable, is the ideal time to go on an Antarctica yacht charter.
Galapagos Islands
The Galapagos Islands are unlike any other destination on the planet, and the only way to experience them in absolute luxury is on a yacht charter trip to the volcanic islands. On both land and sea, you will come across unusual creatures that will surprise and amuse you.
Ecuador’s Galapagos Islands seem a place that has vanished into the past. Several intriguing animals have established colonies on land and in the sea after being allowed to develop in the strictly protected area. Get up close and personal with sea creatures while on a hike along the hardened lava rocks to inland lagoons, and take in the variety of unusual birds while doing so. You can find yourself staring down at whale sharks, sea lions, enormous schools of fish, and hammerhead sharks in the best diving location in the world for swimming with big animals.
