Destination
Emperor Penguins
Immerse yourself in the world of emperor penguins that few will ever witness. At the remote Gould Bay Colony on the Weddell Sea coast, you’ll camp on the very sea ice that thousands of emperor penguins call home. This exclusive experience offers unparalleled access to observe these majestic birds in their natural habitat— in one of the most secluded wildlife encounters on Earth.
The Only Experience of Its Kind on Earth
Antarctic Logistics and Expeditions boasts the only field camp near an emperor penguin colony. This means rather than just a single day trip to experience the emperors, ALE guests maximize multiple days with the colony. Warm meals, cozy quarters, and reliable power supply at our one-of-a-kind remote camp allow guests to focus fully on experiencing the magic of Antarctica while staying safe, rested, and connected. Follow our guides each day on a short trek to the colony and experience one of Antarctica’s true wildlife wonders.
Visiting Responsibly
Every expedition to a colony we lead is guided by a clear purpose: to safeguard Antarctica’s unique ecosystems and ensure emperor penguins continue to thrive in the wild for generations to come. By strictly adhering to IAATO guidelines, we minimize our footprint while maximizing meaningful, responsible encounters with these remarkable animals. No noise, no stress—just respectful observation, small-group access, and a promise to leave nothing behind but awe.
