ANTARCTICA
The World’s Most
Isolated Continent

The frozen continent is expected to remain an expensive,
specialized niche destination offered by a limited number
of experienced operators.

Antarctica, the world’s fifth largest continent, surrounded by the Southern Ocean, is the world’s most isolated place, where vast mountain ranges and the enormous emptiness of the polar ice cap leave you feeling very small in the immensity of creation. Some say its gigantic icebergs and its unique ice shelves, which double its 14.2 million square km area in the winter, make it the most beautiful spot on earth.
Apart from the scientific bases run by a handful of countries, the only other signs of human presence in Antarctica are the frozen huts of unknown whalers and famous explorers like Shackleton, Amundsen, Scott, Nordenskjöld and Larsen who answered the challenge of its emptiness in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Antarctica is a continent of extremes. It is the coldest: a temperature of -89ºC was recorded in 1983 at Russia’s Vostock base. It is also the windiest, with winds of up to 320 km/h, the driest, with zero humidity, and the highest, with an average elevation of 2.2 km.
The thickness of its ice sheet is 2.7 km on average, and as much as 4 km in some places.
The international treaty that governs Antarctica states that it belongs to no person or country, and that its minerals, animals and plants must be left put. It is a free, demilitarized land of magnificent beauty that is dedicated to scientific research and international cooperation for peace.
The first tourists to set foot there flew in from Christchurch, New Zealand, in 1957 aboard a PanAm flight that landed briefly at McMurdo Sound.
But the real pioneer of Antarctic tourism was Lars-Eric Lindblad, who in 1966 began offering wealthy passengers unusual cruises to the frozen continent with professors on board lecturing on the continent’s history, geology, glaciers and wildlife.
By sea and land
The most common way of getting to Antaractica is by ship during the November-March southern hemisphere warm season. Most cruises leave from Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, and visit the Antarctic Peninsula only.
During the 1999/2000 season, 143 Antarctic cruises run by eight operators departed from the port of Ushuaia. IAATO put the number of tourists transported at 15,000 — a new record.
The steady increase in Antarctic tourism of the past years is expected to continue as the “baby boom” generation retires with plenty of money to enjoy special destinations that few people manage to experience.
