Jump into the sub-zero Southern Ocean, tethered and towel-ready, for the purest bragging right in Antarctica travel — and it costs nothing.
What to expect
A crew member secures a harness line before you leap from the gangway or a Zodiac into water hovering around -1°C. Medical staff and hot towels are steps away, and the whole ordeal lasts under 30 seconds of submersion. Most guests do it once, laughing the entire time back to the ship's mudroom.
Good to know
Sign up on the daily activity sheet — slots fill on calm-weather days; bring a robe, as wind chill after is sharper than the water itself.
