Destinations » Polar Regions » Antarctica » South Georgia


South Georgia Island is known for its large population of king penguin, seals and variety of sea birds, including diving petrels and majestic albatrosses. On the way, here you will spot mighty Southern Right whales breaching the water. Stunningly beautiful and rugged, this island wildlife sanctuary, once visited, is not easily forgotten. Its snow-covered peaks, blue glacier ice and emerald green bays, are a breathtaking sight. It is a real "oasis" in the stormy southern oceans and is home to sea and land birds, seals and reindeer. This site aims to provide a window to this fragile environment–and offer the chance to discover more about what makes the island of South Georgia so special.
