South shetland islands was discovered by British explorer william smith in 18 19, and he described it as a wasteland covered with ice and snow in his log book. The archipelago consists of 1 1 large islands and some small islands, with a total land area of 3687 square kilometers, and about 80% to 90% of the land is covered by glaciers all the year round. There are large groups of seals everywhere on the island, and penguins also nest in groups, including hooded penguins, golden penguins and relatively rare Macroni penguins. In addition, there are giant petrels, blue-eyed cormorants and seagulls hanging in the air, and most of them nest on cliffs. The only two plants in Antarctica, moss and lichen, have also flourished on the island in this short summer.

Located in West Antarctica, it is the largest peninsula in the Antarctic continent, and it extends farthest into the sea to the north (63 south latitude). It is adjacent to the Weddell Sea and Billings King's High Sea in the east and west, with a vast continental shelf offshore and continental ice in Vychner in the east. The Drake Strait, 970 kilometers to the north, faces South America, and to the south are rugged mountains and ice and snow plateaus. ?

Day 05165438+1October 65438+Thursday 06 Beagle Strait-Drake Strait?

All the way south, through the famous tunnel between the South American continent and the Antarctic Peninsula-Drake Strait, explore this white ocean connecting South America and the Antarctic continent. 1578 Foces, a famous British explorer? Drake sailed to this sea area, so the channel was named after his surname as a souvenir. Dry cold air from the Antarctic continent and relatively humid and warm air from the South American continent flow with each other, making this sea area stormy. At the same time, it is also the intersection of polar cold water and northern warm water, which produces a lot of nutrients and nourishes the rich and diverse natural ecology of this sea area. Sailing about 600 nautical miles to the south, when approaching the vicinity of the Antarctic convergence zone, cold and hot water meet here to form a mist, and a fresh and cold air unique to Antarctica can be gradually smelled in the air. Today, you can participate in various activities and lectures organized by the ship to learn about the ecological environment of Antarctica, including all kinds of exotic birds and marine life growing in Antarctica. You can also come to the deck, where you will have the opportunity to see various exotic Antarctic seabirds such as albatross, skua and black-backed seagull, which will be an excellent opportunity for you to take photos as a souvenir. ?

Gracci Strait?

I plan to go to Gracci Strait today. This is a waterway between the Antarctic Peninsula and several nearby islands. Gerlache, a Belgian naval officer, set out from Patagonia, Chile on 1897 12 14. In February of the following year, he discovered the strait now named after him and many other places or islands named after his companions. Unexpectedly, from February of 16, the Belgians who had sailed to 7 1 3 1' south latitude were entangled in ice floes in early autumn, and they were embedded in frozen seawater for 377 days before they escaped. This is the first expedition in human history to spend the winter in the Antarctic and be lucky to leave. ?

Port Neck?

Planning to go to Port Nick. Port Nick is located in Anwar Bay, surrounded by mountains. Spectacular glaciers become its natural barrier and a gathering place for golden penguins. Here, we can fully enjoy the scenery of Anwar Bay and Antarctic Peninsula. If the weather permits, we will also hold activities such as swimming on Antarctic ice! ?
