The Frozen Continent

Antarctica
Antarctica is the coldest, driest, and windiest continent on Earth. 

Almost entirely covered in ice, it holds around 70% of the world’s fresh water frozen in vast ice sheets. Despite its extreme conditions, Antarctica is home to unique wildlife such as penguins, seals, and whales, plays a crucial role in regulating Earth’s climate and sea levels.

This gallery features photos from Ewan Blyth, experienced outdoor educator and guide who's been leading kayaking trips in Antarctica for over 14 years. 

"As any adventurer knows, beneath the layers of adrenaline, risk-taking and satisfaction of the ego lies something far deeper. Connection with these wild places is what we truly seek." - Ewan Blyth
