Visiting Antarctica


A retired California trial attorney, William Seegmiller represented people who had been injured for more than three decades. In his free time, William Seegmiller enjoys traveling and has visited Antarctica

For many, Antarctica is a dream vacation and a trip of a lifetime. It takes effort and time to visit the snowy continent, and the timeframe is limited to November through March, the Antarctic summer. 

There are several ways to experience Antarctica, all via boat. The most common, and most affordable, route is from Ushuaia, which is the southernmost city in the world at the tip of Argentina. This route goes through the Drake Passage, South Shetland Islands, and the Antarctic Peninsula before turning around. Some trips cross the Antarctic Circle, though these trips are few and only for the most intrepid adventurers who are excited by going beyond the 66th parallel. A lengthier trip includes the Falkland Islands and South Georgia, which is attractive to history buffs interested in viewing battlefield sites from the War of 1812.
