Meet Andre Belem, Educational Coordinator at Antarctica21

This month we sat down with Andre Belem, our resident educational coordinator, at Antarctica21, who is celebrating his 10th year working with us.

Visiting the 7th continent has always been my dream, and when you fulfill such a big dream it takes time to realize what happened.

We are happy to report that the construction of our new ship, Magellan Explorer is well underway in its shipyard in Valdivia, Chile.

One of the key pieces of clothing you will need for your Antarctic expedition is the outer shell – a good jacket.

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!

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