En route to South Georgia Island

Next stop was South Georgia Island, one of the British Overseas territories, and 2 days sailing away.


It is in the Antarctic Convergence, so all the rules applying to Antarctica apply (maximum 100 people ashore at a time, full bio security checks etc)



The flag interestingly showing penguins, elephant seal and reindeer. The latter introduced by the Norweigan sealers, now eradicated.


Our first sighting of the island..


..coastal scenery heading to our first landing.
