Day
3:
Sailing through Fiords and Garibaldi Glacier
During the night and morning
we sail through the Whaler`s Channel towards the Garibaldi
Fiord. We board the zodiacs once again to do a crossing
to visit a glacier. The Garibaldi Fiord is surrounded
by high mountains and we make our way through a narrow
channel until we arrive at the spectacular glacier
which is situated in the Alberto D`Agostini National
Park. Afterwards, we sail through the north-western
branch of the Beagle Channel, known as “Glacier Avenue”
where we will see glaciers such as Italia, Holanda,
Alemania, Francia and Romanche among others. We then
will continue sailing through the Beagle Channel towards
Ushuaia. |
Day
4:
Ushuaia
Today, we dock at Ushuaia, the southernmost port
in Argentina and considered by many as the centre
of Tierra del Fuego Island. If you wish, you may
go sightseeing and shopping and thereby appreciate
a little of the daily life and business culture.
Today those passengers who have chosen a 4-day
expedition will leave us (9:00 am), and those
who are taking the return voyage, from Ushuaia,
will board the vessel. The check-in in Ushuaia
will be at 4:00pm and departure at 7:00 pm to
cross The Beagle Channel.
Day
5:
Cape Horn
After departing from Ushuaia, the Antarctic Dream
will sail through the Beagle Channel crossing
Nassau Bay until we stop at Calera Leon in Cape
Horn, the southernmost spot on the continent.
Depending on weather conditions, we will visit
Cape Horn home to the National Park and the great
Albatross Monument which honours all sailors who
have died in this area. After this unique experience
we head back towards the continent to Picton Island
where we disembark and take a walk and see the
beauty of the sub-Antarctic.
Day
6 :
North-western branch - Beagle Channel
Early morning we sail through the northwestern
branch of the Beagle Channel and, weather permitting,
disembark on one of the fiords. We can find incredible
glaciers which we can approach them from our zodiacs
and our guides then take us to a nearby beach
where we can disembark and admire the view. From
the zodiacs you behold the beauty and splendour
of the surroundings and the peaks that constitute
Darwin’s Mountain and the breathtaking view of
the D`Aggostini National Park. During the afternoon
we continue due west to sail through Brecknock
Passage and head towards Fiord Keats.
Day
7: D’Agostini’s Glacier
We wake up at the admirable D’Agostini’s Fiord
and approach the glacier aboard our zodiacs. Our
guides take us to a nearby beach where one can
admire the view and enjoy a delicious and typical
barbecue. On our return and weather permitting,
we will take a 10 minute helicopter flight over
the Antarctic Dream, surrounded by the snowed
peaks of the Darwin Mountain Range. You can enjoy
unsurpassed aerial views of the D`Aggostini National
Park.
Day
