Cruises visiting King George Island

307 upcoming Antarctic expeditions with King George Island on the route, from $6,795 per person.

King George Island is the South Shetlands' largest island and Antarctica's transport hub: fly-cruise passengers land on its gravel airstrip after a two-hour flight from Punta Arenas, skipping the Drake Passage entirely.

The island hosts research stations from a dozen nations, plus gentoo and chinstrap colonies and elephant seal wallows within Zodiac reach.
