Antarctica

Chiriguano Bay

Chiriguano Bay is on the south side of Brabant Island, part of the Palmer Archipelago and bordering the Gerlache Strait which separates it from continental Antarctica. We arrived there in the early evening on Sunday, December 10.

The following morning, in the snow and wind, we went on a Zodiac cruise and found a few humpback whales.
