Going to Antarctica had been on my bucket list for a long time, when we realised that we could also dive there it was a dream come true. Antarctica was everything we hoped it would be and more. We were able to go diving, kayaking, overnight camping and walking as well as doing an ocean plunge. There were so many fantastic experiences, such as diving an iceberg, watching the space station go by whilst camping outside, humpwhales, kayaking next to penguins, so many interactions with penguins, sailing down iceberg alley and Lemaire Channel. We were able to dive every day as well as go on land. The diving was a very unique experience and one I never thought possible in the Antarctic. The crew were great and made it a safe and very enjoyable adventure trip to the Antarctica. Thank you to the crew of M/V Plancius for this memorable trip.
