SOUTH SHETLAND ISLANDS

Boasting extraordinary scenery, this volcanic archipelago of snowcapped mountains and icebergs just northwest of the Antarctic Peninsula is an enthralling site. A haven for wildlife, colonies of chinstrap, gentoo, and Adélie penguins make their home here, and Antarctic fur seals and Southern elephant seals command the beaches. Seabirds are everywhere, including Antarctic terns and giant petrels.
