- relive the higlights of my Antarctica cruise: kayaking with whales, icy landscapes and wildlife (leopard seals, penguins, skuas...).
The best time to cruise Antarctica is from november to march, with a preference for january if you hope to see whales and baby penguins.
If you go too early, as the ocean is still packed with ice there are many place you won't be able to discover, especially if you opted for kayak expedition. On the other hand if you want to see Antarctica full of ice then november is the right time to cruise along the white continent.
I chose january because I am interested in wildlife. I saw plenty of humpback whales and Minke whales as well as penguin chicks ans leopard seals.
