At this time of  the season, the Elephant seals are battling for control of the beaches  and the female harems. The King penguins are there in their tens of  thousands and the snow covered mountains are at their most spectacular\u201d.  <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>After  leaving South Georgia, the expedition travels across the Scotia Sea  towards the Antarctic Peninsula, aiming to visit Elephant Island \u2013 the  place where Sir Ernest Shackleton launched his famous rescue mission 100  years ago. This remarkable feat of survival was brought to light  recently during the screening of the documentary on SBS &#8211; \u2018Chasing  Shackleton\u2019 \u2013 co-ordinated by Australian adventurer Tim Jarvis. <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Four  days of exploring the stunning bays and coves of the Antarctic  Peninsula follow, where guests explore by Zodiac inflatable boats and  make daily shore excursions to enjoy a range of activities in the  company of wildlife experts, naturalists, adventure guides. <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oneoceanexpeditions.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.<span>oneoceanexpeditions<\/span>.<span>com<\/span><\/a> for details or email: <a href=\"mailto:voyages@oneoceanexpeditions.com\" target=\"_blank\">voyages@<span>oneoceanexpeditions<\/span>.<wbr><\/wbr><span>com<\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#expeditioncruising King penguin chick (David Schultz) Antarctic operator, One Ocean Expeditions has announced the addition of a sixth departure to the wildlife rich Falkland Islands, South Georgia and Antarctic Peninsula.
