OCEANIA — THE WHITSUNDAYS, AUSTRALIA

ANTARCTICA — EXPEDITION YACHTING
Antarctica has no conventional sailing resorts. Its equivalent is the specialist expedition yacht: a carefully managed floating base for exploring the continent’s coast, ice and wildlife.
The finest sailing resorts understand that the water is not simply a view. It is the heart of the experience.
They provide comfort on land while encouraging guests to discover the world beyond the marina.
