Antarctic Circle Expedition
Dec 26, 2026 – Jan 10, 2027 · 16 days
1,000 departures across 14 operators and 39 ships
10 upcoming Antarctic expeditions with Marguerite Bay on the route, from $12,059 per person.
Marguerite Bay lies well south of the Antarctic Circle, reached only by dedicated Circle-crossing voyages late in the season. This is the deep south of the Peninsula: vast, ice-choked and almost empty of ships.
Emperor penguin sightings are possible here, and the sense of remoteness is unmatched on the west coast.

Wildlife
The leopard seal is the Antarctic's second-largest seal after the elephant seal, built long and muscular with a spotted, leopard-like coat. It is the region's top predator, hunting penguins, fish, and even other seals along the ice edge.
