Take the traditional icy dip directly into Antarctic Sound's sub-zero water, tethered and towel-ready, for the ultimate bragging-rights bucket-list moment.
What to expect
You strip down to swimwear on a rear platform or Zodiac-accessed shoreline, harnessed to a safety line, and leap into water hovering around -1°C. Crew haul you out within seconds and wrap you in warm towels and a shot of something strong. It's brutal, brief, and among the most talked-about ten seconds of the entire voyage.
