Creator's Key Takeaways

So, it's very cold there. Really, really cold there.

If you do have mobility problems or, um, it's harder for you to get around or stand much, there are a lot of um, windows on the ship.

I am not doing that again. As dressy as I'm going to get for formal night, I'm taking a pair of uh, black slacks and a black sweater.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use layers to stay warm in Antarctica.
Get a wide scarf for more warmth and easier wrapping.
Bring warm boots with good grip for port stops.
Have a waterproof coat for rain and ship spray.
Pack short sleeve shirts for hot port stops.

I walk you through how to think about layers, because that truly makes all the difference in Antarctica. Even during the summer months, temperatures are cold, the wind is constant, and the ship’s movement creates additional windchill. I explain what I use for base layers, mid-layers, outer layers, coats, scarves, hats, gloves, and footwear — and why waterproof and windproof layers are far more important than heavy or expensive gear. We also talk about what to wear on the ship, how chilly indoor areas can feel, and why you don’t need to pack formal clothing for this kind of cruise. I share realistic advice for travelers who don’t live in cold climates, what works well if you have mobility concerns, and how to prepare for hot, humid ports before and after Antarctica. My goal is to help you feel prepared, warm, and confident, so you can fully enjoy this incredible experience instead of worrying about what you packed.
