The industry is changing, but
                                           we promise to stay the same.

We started this company in 2010, born of a long-standing love for exploring this incredible continent, and a desire to
pass that love on to as many people as possible. 11 years and many thousands of travelers later, our deep Antarctic
experience has taught us a lot, and all the benefits of that experience are passed along to everyone who joins us. We
like to say that on a Polar Latitudes voyage, we are all explorers. And at the end of each journey, our fellow explorers
often comment that they felt like a part of the “Polar Latitudes family.” I like that.

We know that we are currently living in a time of uncertainty, but we remain steadfast in our long-term optimism,
even in the face of some hard-to-miss changes taking place. 2021 will see a number of new ships coming into
Antarctic waters, with an increased focus on amenities and on-board entertainment. To each his own, as they say.
For us, the main attraction has always been making an up-close and personal connection with the last wild place on
earth. And everything we do, on board and off, we do to enhance (not distract from) that experience. I assure you
that will never change.

But we are introducing a new ship, and that’s one change we’re excited about. It’s called Seaventure — a purpose-
built ship that sets the standard for safe, comfortable Polar travel. Seaventure will provide passengers with a slightly
larger vessel, one that will allow us to deliver an even better small ship experience. It has an industry-high ice rating,
and a newly built science lab that will afford even more opportunities to explore.

The feature we’re most proud of? Our many decades of collective experience traveling to this unique — and
uniquely challenging — part of the world. No amenity can replace the value in that.

To this day, we remain founder-owned and run, and focused on delivering a boutique luxury experience for people
who want a more immersive Antarctic journey. Every time out, watching our guests’ eyes light up makes it brand new
for all of us, again and again. That’s another thing I’m pretty sure will never change.

We are all explorers

From the moment we are born, we are born to
explore — devouring the incredible world around
us, seeing, touching, feeling … looking for any
and every way to indulge our boundless curiosity.
Adulthood and the distractions of modern life
sometimes have a way of making us forget that.

Antarctica has a way of making us remember.

At Polar Latitudes, everything we do, we do with
a spirit of exploration in our hearts, and with
Antarctica front and center in our minds. When
you journey with us into this wild and untamed
place, you become more than a traveler; you
become, once again, an explorer — in every sense
of the word. We deliver a small ship experience
that offers a more close-up, personal and at
times life-changing engagement with the land
and wildlife around us. We embrace a spirit of
improvisation and childlike wonder as we seek
out unique opportunities, whenever and wherever
Antarctica offers them to us. And our expedition
team is chosen for their skill and their passion. We
believe they are second to none in both.

Our new ship, Seaventure, emphasizes amenities
that enhance and enrich — rather than detract
from — the Antarctic experience. You’ll find
panoramic views, generous outdoor and shared
spaces, and invigorating luxuries like a fitness
center and sauna, along with world-class dining
and accommodations. What you won’t find are
the glitzy toys and diversions that some ships are
beginning to bring into Antarctic waters. That’s
by design. On a Polar Latitudes ship, we are all
explorers. And what explorers come to Antarctica
for, is Antarctica.

Join us on the trip of a lifetime. Indulge the inner
explorer in you, as you discover the last wild,
unpopulated, undisturbed place on planet Earth.
Along the way, you might even discover yourself.

CITIZEN SCIENCE

Polar Latitudes Citizen Science Program
Citizen Science is a way to harness the power of travelers to observe, record, and report on
natural phenomena. This is particularly helpful in the Antarctic, where it is challenging to support
long-term academic observation teams.

Guests on Polar Latitudes voyages are invited to participate in data-gathering activities that
support major research projects. The data we collect contributes to a better understanding of
Antarctica’s unique ecology and changing climate.

The projects offered may vary slightly by voyage. If you are interested in participating please see
the onboard daily bulletin and join the scheduled Citizen Science Introduction Meeting at the
start of your voyage. There is no additional cost to participate.

Introducing the MS Seaventure
Enhanced Features for a Better Small Ship Experience

MS Seaventure features a 1-A Super ice class rating — the highest ice class awarded to
passenger vessels. She can explore places that ships with a lesser ice class simply can’t.

The ship also offers a host of new amenities, including a sauna, fitness center, custom-
built citizen science lab, and heated saltwater pool. Increased storage space allows
us to carry more adventure equipment, permitting more of our guests to participate in
activities like kayaking and camping.

Large beautifully appointed common areas let guests spread out and relax, and the
addition of a second kitchen offers more dining options, including al fresco dining
when weather permits.

Come explore with us in comfort & style!
