South Georgia Island

2016

South Georgia is an island in the Antarctic region, with 9000 foot peaks and 160 glaciers. Located 1,300 miles east of Tierra del Fuego in the South Atlantic Ocean, a combination of underwater topography and converging currents produce rich seas that support some of the most populous seal, penguin, and seabird colonies on the planet.
