Making the most of Neko Harbor
Use these notes to shape a realistic day ashore, then confirm any time-sensitive information for the date of your call.
01
Arriving at the port
With no berth available for cruise ships, passengers reach land aboard inflatable Zodiac tenders.
02
Sightseeing
Little remains at the Andvord Bay landing to show that the floating whale-factory ship Neko once worked here. Whale vertebrae may be visible, used by resident Gentoo Penguins as windbreaks, and Argentina has built an unmanned refuge hut. Continue past the hut and climb the steep hillside for impressive views across the glacier-fringed harbour.
