Destinations » Polar Regions » Antarctica » Port Lockroy


Port Lockroy is a beautiful natural harbor on Goudier Island on the Palmer archipelago, reached by passing through the towering grandiose cliffs of the Neumayer Channel. The great French explorer Jean-Baptiste Charcot named Port Lockroy a century ago. This is home to Antarctica's only public post office, so make sure to bring a postcard to send mail to be postmarked in Antarctica.
