LUXURY Antarctica HOLIDAYS

Antarctica is known for its breathtaking scenery, extraordinary wildlife, and rich potential for scientific discovery. Whether you dream of setting foot on the frozen continent or experiencing its vastness from the water, Pelorus offers unrivaled access to this remote region.

Chartering a yacht with Pelorus Yachting allows you to reach the most isolated corners of Antarctica in comfort and style, navigating through iceberg-dotted waters to encounter colonies of emperor penguins, breaching whales, and towering glaciers up close. For those who prefer to explore with two feet on the ground, we also craft journeys that include luxury eco-camps deep within the icy wilderness, where you can hike, ice-climb, and even polar plunge under expert guidance.

The Pelorus team are pioneers in designing bespoke Antarctic experiences, combining deep expedition expertise with a global network of polar specialists to deliver a journey as unique as the white continent itself.

Kayak Beside Enormous Glaciers and Icebergs

Exploring Antarctic waters by kayak enables you to see crevasses and glaciers from a different perspective. Soak in complete silence and serenity in a part of the world with virtually zero noise pollution. Clear waters, impressive glaciers, and a unique perspective on Antarctica’s impressive range of wildlife – from whales swimming in nearby waters to large colonies of penguins. 

Heli-ski to the ends of the earth

Make tracks in unchartered territory, discovering pristine slopes and untouched wilderness at its greatest. Secure access to two helicopters, enabling epic heli-skiing further inland. Ski mountains that have never been skied before in a truly exhilarating experience, alongside experienced mountain guides who will show you the ropes. A videographer will also accompany you to bring back evidence of your action-packed adventure that you will treasure forever.

Plunge to the underwater world in a submersible

A submersible vehicle is seen gliding through clear blue water, with sunlight filtering down from above. The rounded viewing dome is prominent, showcasing its underwater exploration capabilities.

It’s true that Antarctica is breath-taking enough above water. However, submersibles enable you to plunge to the ocean depths below to see what is hiding beneath the icy waters of the frozen continent. Discover the fascinating marine life in this part of the world, spy historical shipwrecks, and marvel at the scale of the icebergs as you discover the depths of the ocean alongside experts. 

Encounter rare wildlife and contribute to scientific research

Antarctica is home to multiple species of penguin, leopard and crabeater seals, humpback and orca whales, Antarctic terns, and varying species of albatross. Encounter these animals at a safe and respectable distance, alongside scientists and conservationists who are carrying out crucial research on wildlife in the area.

Conservation at the Core

Pelorus is privileged to be operating in largely undiscovered regions such as Antarctica. With every private expedition, we make sure that we are adhering to sustainable travel, working within the boundaries of the International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators (IAATO) and alongside leading experts in their field.

In addition to this, our clients have the privilege of becoming ambassadors for Antarctica, growing in awareness and understanding of the climate crisis and the need for conservation.

As part of your trip, you’ll be accompanied by leading conservationists and scientists, not only enabling you to witness and participate in global research efforts, but you’ll also be giving the scientists the means to carry out their research.

Why charter a yacht in Antarctica?

Chartering a yacht in Antarctica unlocks an entirely different level of exploration - one that offers unrivalled access to the White Continent’s most remote and untouched regions. From the comfort of an ice-strengthened expedition yacht, you can reach areas that traditional routes can’t. Sail through labyrinths of towering icebergs, landing on uninhabited shores, and encountering wildlife far from any other travellers.

A yacht offers complete flexibility, allowing your itinerary to adapt to the weather, wildlife movements, and your own curiosity.
