Maritime archeologist Mensun Bound worked for 32 consecutive years as an excavation diver, but the pinnacle of his career thus far came as Director of Exploration for the team that discovered the Endurance in 2022. Bound, a native of the Falklands, will impart his expertise as special guest speaker aboard the October 30, 2025 departure of Antarctica, South Georgia, and the Falklands—an epic journey that brings to life the story of Ernest Shackleton’s daring and seemingly impossible rescue mission.
In this episode of In Good Company, Bound shares more about his storied career surveying shipwrecks around the globe, how his parents helped Lars-Eric Lindblad open up travel to the Falkland Islands, and why exploring the Antarctic with National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions is such an unforgettable experience.
