OCEAN EXPLORATION IN STYLE WITH
Henry Cookson has created innovative new services in the luxury travel industry, bringing the first private submersible to Antarctica, working with remote tribes in Asia and Africa, and personally curating and hosting many of the adventures himself. Henry founded Cookson Adventures in 2009. His passion for exploration reached new levels in 2004, as he prepared for the Polar Challenge and then the Pole of Inaccessibility, for which he now holds a world record.
Cookson Adventures are leaders in experiential luxury adventure travel. They specialise in taking clients to explore isolated, bio-diverse ecosystems in typically unreachable regions and climates, without compromising on style and comfort. Whether discovering unknown Roman shipwrecks by submersible, or organising the most complex multi-yacht expeditions in Antarctica of the modern-era, they continue to pioneer the concept of world-first discoveries in travel. Each one of their adventures is ultra-personalised to each client, built from the ground up by a team of in-house experts who range from British Army captains to global event planners. They also draw on an international network of contacts that includes ice pilots, research scientists, and marine biologists, all of whom add their unique and expert insight into their experiences.
PRESERVING AND PIONEERING Having rehomed hundreds of giant tortoises in the Galapagos and discovered a new species of orca off Cape Horn, conservation is at the very heart of Cookson Adventures. They operate no single-use plastic yacht operations, and in 2020 they committed to delivering completely carbon neutral expeditions and experiences. Cookson Adventures worked with Carbon Footprint Ltd to build a bespoke carbon calculator to
