Deep South & Ross Sea · 68°30′S · 68°30′W
Deep Circle Frontier • Ice-Choked Wilderness
12 upcoming Antarctic expeditions with Marguerite Bay on the route, from $13,170.
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.

Seals & Sea Lions
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.
