The Caledonian Star anchored near Paulet Island in the eastern Weddell Sea, and ferried guests ashore by zodiac. This was the overwintering site of some members of the Swedish Expedition to Antarctica in 1901-1904. Remains of their stone hut are a reminder of their stay. Paulet is also the home of approximately 150,000 pairs of Adelie penguins who build conical nests of stones and pebbles on all easily reached parts of the island, including hilltops.
