Is the Whichaway Camp for Me?

Located in Queen Maud Land on the ice-free Schirmacher Oasis, Whichaway is White Desert Antarctica’s flagship luxury camp.

Just a 5-hour flight from Cape Town, this warm and welcoming base offers a chance to disconnect from the modern world and immerse yourself in the great outdoors. Surrounded by freshwater lakes, a 60m icefall, blue rivers, and crystal caves, Whichaway is the perfect launching point for once-in-a-lifetime experiences like ice-climbing, abseiling, yoga, saunas, and meditation.

The camp features 6 heated ‘polar pods’ with cutting-edge exteriors and old-world interiors that evoke Antarctica’s rich heritage of exploration. Relax and socialize in the communal lounge, library, and dining area, which offers stunning views of the breathtaking landscape.

With hearty breakfasts, elegant lunches, and three-course dinners featuring top South African produce and wines from the finest Cape vineyards, you’ll be well-fed while exploring the Great White Continent.
