First Pride Cruise taking the rainbow flag to Antarctica

The inaugural LGBTIQA+ Pride cruise will embark on a journey to Antarctica, allowing Australians to unfurl the rainbow flag at the southernmost reaches of the world.

This unique expedition will be organized in February 2025, with capacity for approximately 100 passengers.

Departing from Ushuaia, Argentina on February 6, 2025, the Greg Mortimer expedition ship will navigate the challenging Drake Passage en route to the Antarctic Peninsula. Over nine days, passengers on the Pride Cruise will explore icy coastlines, discover hidden bays, and observe a variety of wildlife including sea birds, penguins, seals, and whales during daily excursions.

In addition to experiencing these natural wonders, travelers will have the opportunity to plant the rainbow pride flag in Antarctica, capturing unforgettable photo moments. Evenings aboard the Greg Mortimer will feature a lineup of specially curated Pride events.

Designed as an expedition vessel, the Greg Mortimer boasts numerous observation areas, along with amenities such as a gym, sauna, whirlpool spas, and a mud room. The ship offers 76 cabins and suites, many with balconies, ensuring comfort for the first-ever group of Antarctica Pride Cruise passengers.

The cruise concludes with an included one-way charter flight from King George Island to Punta Arenas, Chile, offering travelers stunning aerial views as a final highlight of this extraordinary journey.
