Antarctica is often referred to as the frozen continent. It has long held a fascination for explorers and adventurers the world over. Join Eco-Photo Explorers as they begin their journey south in Ushuaia, Argentina by diving in the Beagle Channel. Here they explore lush kelp forests and observe giant King Crabs. The trip south to Antarctica takes them across the turbulent Drake Passage and along the pristine wilderness of the Antarctic Peninsula. Underwater encounters with playful Antarctic Fur Seals, bizarre sea-stars, colorful invertebrates and strange fish with antifreeze in their blood follow as the expedition pushes further south into the ice-choked waters below the Antarctic Circle.

This virtual program describes what it is like to travel to, explore and dive in Antarctica, where heart-stopping dives beneath massive ice-bergs and expansive ice-flows epitomize Antarctic diving. Expedition logistics, as well as Antarctic wildlife, ocean and weather conditions are discussed, preparing you for your journey to the frozen continent.
