South Georgia feels like stepping inside a wildlife documentary. In the South Atlantic Ocean, it’s free from sea ice and a rich breeding site for millions of penguins, seabirds, and seals. Nowhere else on Earth will you find king penguins, fur seals, or elephant seals in such vast numbers. On HX Expeditions to Antarctica, we often spend a few days in South Georgia before south to the White Continent. Our itinerary, as always, depends on the weather and wildlife, but you may hike to the iconic St Andrews Bay – home to the world’s largest king penguin colony – visit Grytviken’s historic whaling station, or reach the resting place of explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton, who landed on South Georgia during his 1916 rescue mission. Find HX Expeditions to South Georgia here: https://www.travelhx.com/en/campaigns/travel-guide-to-south-georgia/ Since 1896, HX has led mindful expeditions to the world’s most extraordinary places. Today, we continue that legacy, taking curious adventurers to iconic destinations like Antarctica, Galápagos, Greenland and aboard our modern expedition ships.
