The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Walk unfenced cliffs where black-browed albatross and southern rockhopper penguins nest side by side, with striated caracaras circling overhead.
A quieter, off-track walk past a fur seal wallow and gentoo penguin loafing groups on New Island's western shore, away from the main albatross path.
Wander the abandoned 1908 Norwegian whaling station and the restored Barnard House, New Island's oldest surviving dwelling, guided by the Trust's own historian-warden.
A slow, low-to-the-water pass along New Island's dramatic western cliffs and sea caves, watching for whales, dolphins and diving seabirds from the water.
Sit quietly at a respectful distance from a haul-out of elephant seals and fur seals at Ship Harbour, a spot far fewer visitors reach on a short call.
A one-on-one or small-group walk timed around golden-hour light, led by a resident naturalist who knows exactly where the albatross pairs are displaying that day.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
