Details
This Quark Expeditions expedition cruise offers a rare opportunity to actively contribute to citizen science while exploring the Antarctic Peninsula and the South Shetland Islands. Co-developed by Ari Friedlaender, founder of the Friedlaender Lab, the hands-on itinerary is designed to maximise observations of migratory whales, including minke, humpback and fin whales. A research associate from Happywhale supports whale identification for global conservation projects, while the onboard Science Hub connects expert-led research with efforts to help protect this pristine polar habitat for whales, seals and wider marine life.
