Gentoo Penguin -- MS Fram in Background

Petermann Island.

Notice the snow-covered cliffs behind the Fram.

Petermann Island is about 1 degree latitude north of the Anrarctic CIrcle. This was as far south as we went. I believe cruises later in the season later (in the Southern Hemisphere summer) reach the Antarctic Circle, There is less floating ice at that time. However, I'm not sure if there are any actual landing points south of the Antarctic Circle.
