Across the Top of the World - Wrangel Island |
Join us during the late Northern summer, a period when the land and sea provide their greatest abundance for all of those there to soak it in. The skies teem with migratory birds, many appearing at this late hour for the express purpose of breeding. Walrus dot the shore line and Wrangel Island lives up to its nickname, “the Polar Bear maternity ward.” Flowers carpet the vast tundra and the occasional reindeer crosses our path.
Travel from Nome, Alaska to one of the last isolated regions in the world, Chukotka. Bowhead and Grey whales escort our vessel as we sail along the remote and rarely traversed coastline. Frequent landings invite you to immerse yourself in the Chukchi lifestyle. Local entertainment and indigenous cuisine greatly alter your experience of the expansive and remote region. Explore natural and human history with us in this wild and beautiful land.
