The day began with a visit to the largest gentoo penguin colony on the Antarctic peninsula at Cuverville Island. Time ashore was spent with the colonies, and a chinstrap penguin was also seen. Zodiac cruising was offered to explore the surrounding area, which was filled with stunning ice and wildlife. In the afternoon, the ship arrived at the Melchior Islands for a beautiful tour via Zodiac to explore the many islands. Humpback whales, Weddell and leopard seals, and birdlife were all around. It was a stunning end to our time in Antarctica.
