Ice, ice baby
Tourists boats pass huge icebergs on the Antartic peninsula. Antarctica represents one of the last frontiers for adventurous
travellers, an icy wonderland of glaciers, emperor penguins and seemingly endless white expanses. Tourist numbers in Antarctica have grown from less than 5,000 in 1990 to about 35,000 a year, according to industry figures. Most travel by sea, some paying in excess of $20,000 for a luxury cabin in the peak period from November to March. Photos: AFP / Sarah Dawalibi
