Rare LACruiser88 Posted April 10, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2022 We were on the Star Princess in 2011 for this cruise. The four days we cruised off the coast of Antarctica were clear, beautiful and freezing! I do not think the temperatures got above 20 degrees Fahrenheit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ken the cruiser Posted April 10, 2022 #3 Share Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) When we sailed on the HAL Zaandam around the Antarctica peninsula in Jan 2018, it was beautiful all 4 days with the highs lingering around 32 degrees. But it was a dry cold! 😂 But, when I went outside, I usually wore an undershirt under a long sleeve flannel shirt with a coat designed for cold weather and was quite comfortable.

Rare azbirdmom Posted April 11, 2022 #4 Share Posted April 11, 2022 We were on the Coral Princess for this itinerary in January 2020. Best advice would be to layer. You'll want to be outside a lot as the scenery is incredible and seems to go on forever. A head covering and gloves are definitely necessary but expect wind and very cold temperatures.

lois1112 Posted August 1, 2022 #7 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I was also on the Coral 2020. It was cold and rained a couple of days. As previously stated- layer. spend as much time on deck as you can- I was in a balcony room and this was great as I got to see so much in warmth. but I also spent many hours out on deck. enjoy this trip............I loved it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beg3yrs Posted August 2, 2022 #10 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Don't forget you'll be in Buenos Aires and/or Santiago in the middle of their summer. We did this cruise (our first on Princess) in 2009 and I had to go get some lighter clothes because it was sooo hot. Note: We arrived in BA four days early so I was definitely suffering until new duds were purchased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Feb 2010 on the Star Princess it did snow for us (heavy) one of the days while in Antarctica, the positive was it was Super Bowl Sunday, and I got to watch the Super Bowl outside on the Muts, onboard a ship, at sea, wearing a parka during a snow storm.... ( other worldly !!! ) Now that's a Antarctica memory 🤪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
