ECLIPSED BY INTREPID

Intrepid Travel has launched its polar program for 2021/2022 on board the Ocean Endeavour, including some new itineraries. One of the highlights is sure to be witnessing the solar eclipse of December 2021 from what is the best viewing position in the world: the Southern Ocean between South Georgia and the Antarctic Peninsula.

“The total solar eclipse of 2021 on the Ocean Endeavour will be unforgettable,” said Intrepid Travel managing director AU/NZ Sarah

Clark. “We want our travellers to learn as much as possible on these voyages. Our eclipse itinerary, for example, will include presentations from marine biologists, astrophysicists and meteorologists.”

Guests on this 14-day itinerary, in conjunction with Chimu Adventures, will get up close and personal with penguins, leopard seals, whales and seabirds, and relax on the Ocean Endeavour with a gym, library and heated pool. intrepidtravel.com
