Portal Point

Portal Point is on the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula at the entrance to Charlotte Bay. In 1956 the British built a refuge here. This can now be seen in the museum in Stanley, Falkland.

A landing at Portal Point is possible for tourists as part of a guided Antarctic trip. Magnificent views await visitors here. Icebergs, glacier tongues and snowfields as far as the eye can see. The perfect place to enter the 7th continent. And with with a bit of luck you can also spot Weddell seals in Portal Point.

Tourists can also discover Antarctica on an expedition ship, for example on the Sea Spirit.
