How visits work
Expedition vessel
Plan through a qualified expedition operator. Possible visits depend on site permissions, ice, weather and wildlife guidance.
Before you go
A detail worth checking
Do not assume access to research stations or settlement facilities; current permissions and conditions take priority.
Plan with current guidance
Follow your operator’s briefing, site-specific rules and wildlife guidance. A named place is not a guaranteed visit.
