Antarctica is a desert located at the South pole, and for this reason, it is the coldest place on Earth. The continent has two seasons per year, summer and winter. You can only travel in summer, as the season provides a slightly warmer climate, with a higher chance of seeing wildlife in their natural habitat. Towards the end of the season, you will have more chances of seeing whales, and the shrinking sea ice means you will be able to travel deeper into the Antarctic. Climate change, particularly the warming of the Antarctic Peninsula, is causing changes to Antarctica's physical and living environment. Which has had a significant effect on the wildlife inhabitants, such as penguin colonies. The chinstrap colonies population has dropped by 77% within just 50 years! Other species such as krill are crucial to Antarctica's food chain and are losing their food sources. In turn, creating a train reaction of loss of species. So before it's too late, you should travel to Antarctica. When you arrive, you will be greeted with an abundance of wildlife, pristine landscapes, and long bright days. Book tours to see incredible scenery like Blood falls or visit a Science Research Station to learn and look at Antarctic scientists' in-depth studies! Visit Antarctica today, knowing that the proceeds will be 100% dedicated to scientific research and the wellbeing of the ecosystem.
