Aqua-Firma, a UK-based specialist in polar voyages, has turned up the adventure element by providing this extraordinary 25-day voyage.  Journey on board a 72ft steel ocean-going yacht across the Southern Ocean with just 11 passengers and an expert crew.<\/p>\n<p>With no previous sailing experience required, (but a keen sense of adventure a prerequisite!) you have the opportunity to help set sail, steer and navigate under the guidance of experienced professionals.<\/p>\n<p>The objective is to explore the best of Antarctica, sailing along its mountainous coastline, mooring amid glaciers, and observing fabulous wildlife at close quarters. Two support landing craft and a polar guide means small groups can indulge in their own interests: sit quietly amongst the penguin colonies, visit research stations, hike ashore or silently cruise amid towering icebergs.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about this sailing expedition and other small ship wildlife voyages to Antarctica and the Arctic, call Aqua-Firma&#8217;s polar experts and guides on 01428 620012, email info@aqua-firma.co.uk or visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aqua-firma.co.uk\/experiences\/Polar_Expeditions\/Antarctica\/http:www.aqua_firma.co.ukexperiencesPolar_ExpeditionsAntarcticaAntarctic_Adventure_sail_sailing_yacht_wildlife_iceberg_voyage_drake_passage_Cape\" target=\"_blank\">www.aqua-firma.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are some things in life which stand out as the ultimate adventure and a sailing expedition to explore Antarctica is one of them.
