Travellers
do not visit Antarctica during the winter (our summer) months when
polar ice blocks ship traffic and temperatures plunge into the negative
degrees. Most companies offer cruises from November to March.
Antarctica
cruises bookings should be made as early as possible since the best
cabins are usually reserved one year in advance. A major highlight is
the penguins, colonies of several hundred thousand can be found nesting
and chattering away throughout the area.
