Antarctic cruising is more popular than ever among adventurous Australians, with Chimu Adventures revealing bookings are ”stronger than ever”.

Passenger numbers for Chimu’s itineraries to the Antarctic Peninsula have more than doubled since 2008, according to Chimu Adventures boss Greg Carter.

The last 18 months have seen the upward trend climb even more sharply.

“This is a destination like nowhere else on the planet,” Carter said.

“Untouched by humans, there is no development, the landscapes are ethereal, the wildlife abundant.

“This is one of the most wildly beautiful places to travel in the world and it is back on the bucket list for Australian travellers.”

Carter warned that Chimu’s 2015/16 season is nearly sold out, and advised those yearning for Antarctic adventures should book soon.
