Building Magellan Explorer

Diana Galimberti, Antarctica21’s Executive Vice President, responsible for Product and Operations tells us about the new ship.

Since we pioneered the world’s first Antarctic Air-Cruise, our own journey has been an exciting process of constant evolution.

Born in Konoura, Akita, Japan in July 1861, Shirase Nobu led the first Japanese expedition to Antarctica from December 1910 to June 1912.

Here’s help on how to plan the perfect Antarctic expedition!

Allison Cusick is an avid traveller and scientist pursuing her PhD in oceanography at Scripps Institution of Oceanography.

Both Ocean Nova and Hebridean Sky are vessels with ice-strengthened hulls and therefore can sail in waters where ice is present.

When you spend four-to-six months at a time on board traveling to Antarctica, you’re bound to experience some memorable moments.

Our Expedition Team work tirelessly, seven days a week during the season, to bring all of our guests the most memorable experience of their lives.

We hope you enjoy this brief dose of polar history, the fourth in our Famous Antarctic Explorers Series!
