Dive into the Coral Triangle

The Raja Ampat reef system sits at the heart of the Coral Triangle and harbors 1,500 types of fish and five sea turtle species. Swim, snorkel, kayak, or dive in this epicenter of sea life, and go ashore on nearby islands to encounter ancient Asmat culture.

Set Out on an Arctic Safari

With binoculars in hand, trace the coast of Ellesmere Island, ready to spot polar bears, walruses, ringed seals, beluga whales, and—if we are lucky—narwhals. Then set out across this virtual terra incognita, walking with no set path and one goal: to find the elusive muskox.

See Mummies From an Icy Realm

Explore Greenland’s ancient human history at the archaeological site of Qilakitsoq, where the mummified remains of a Thule family—the subject of a 1985 National Geographic cover story—were unearthed. See four of these well-preserved mummies at the Greenland National Museum in Nuuk.

Stand Amid Colossal Wildlife Colonies

Feel the thrill of being vastly outnumbered by the curious creatures of South Georgia, home to the highest density of wildlife on Earth. Stroll a beach inhabited by more than 100,000 king penguins, and witness vast colonies of nesting albatrosses.
