We spent the morning sailing aboard National Geographic Explorer and looking for wildlife along the beautiful backdrop of Antarctica. The beauty of this place is hard to put into words, but the smiles on everyone’s faces revealed the magic of the White Continent. Upon arriving to Cierva Cove, our destination, we got into our Zodiacs and explored among the brash ice. We were treated to amazing views of humpback whales, leopard seals, and gentoo and chinstrap penguins. We were able to ship cruise and travel closer to the glacier to see the amazing walls of ice. It was a truly remarkable day.
