What a culmination to South Georgia! After a blustery night anchored in the Bay of Isles, guests awoke expecting poor conditions but were pleasantly surprised to see flat seas and a fresh coat of snow on South Georgia’s second largest king penguin colony. One guest even shed a tear at the sheer beauty of Salisbury Plain.

The landing did not disappoint, a natural path through the colony allowed guests to get their best views of the “Oakum Boys” yet. Despite the cold temperatures, the light was stunning and guests used every second on shore to get their shots.

As we embarked back aboard and the ship began its journey north towards Stanley, guests and staff were left reminiscing about another incredible South Georgian experience.
