Exploring Antarctica’s Spring | Ocean Albatros Expedition Ship

The expedition starts in Ushuaia which stands as the world's southernmost city and serves as the primary access point to Antarctica. The city of Ushuaia sits between Tierra del Fuego's mountain range and the Beagle Channel's aquatic expanse while it presents stunning views and an intriguing sea-based past. Visitors to the town can explore its waterfront area and museums and natural surroundings before their expedition begins. The evening starts with a briefing which introduces the expedition team members and provides information about Antarctica's natural environments and animal species and its history of exploration.

The travelers spend their last morning in Ushuaia before they board the expedition ship which will take them on their journey. The ship sails out of the port to enter the Beagle Channel while the rugged Patagonian scenery fades from view. The expedition team provides orientation briefings to travelers who also receive their first meeting with team members before their adventure begins as the ship sets its course for Antarctica.
