Alcohol is available in Antarctica and you will enjoy it. Having travelled to Antarctica a few years back I outline my tips on how to drink alcohol there and in fact this is now a top 6! Get on that boat and see the penguins, but relax while you're doing it. That beer will be cold and sweet.
1. Antarctica Drinking - on Antarctica itself
Having a beer on the continent of Antarctica is something you should definitely do. Strictly speaking you're not meant to but having a small celebration and toasting to your landings on Antarctica is a great way to bond with your ship mates and savour the taste of alcohol in the world's southernmost continent.
2. Having a drink in Antarctica - go out on the deck!
With snowstorms on board the boat and epic views of the landscape, while cruising down the cold continent I can't think of anything better to do than have a beer and admire the views. A great place to relax - even if it is freezing! At least you won't have to keep your beer cold!
3. Drinking in Antarctica: Onboard Bar at Happy Hour
This is perfect for the backpacker, if you're on a tight budget then happy hour is a good way to save money on the boat. There is no need to drink any alcohol after happy hour, just get the cocktails in nice and early and sit back and relax. You can stare out the window at a land of white. Just an amazing travel experience.
- The lounge bar on board the boat is open from 4pm - 7pm normally.
- There is also a late night bar on board the boat, open usually around 8pm until late.
Over dinner you can also enjoy a drink - payment in cash at the end of the trip.
4. Having a drink in Antarctica - bring some alcohol on-board
This is also a backpacker style option and where the real money saving is - buy some beer in Argentina and bring it on board to enjoy with your travel buddies!
5. Having a drink in Antarctica: Vernadskiy Station Bar
A great way to enjoy a drink in Antarctica is to actually drink in a bar on the cold continent. You're in luck! There is a bar at the Ukrainian Vernadskiy Station which even serves its own vodka. They actually make a vodka in Antarctica and you can sample it here.
6. Having a drink in Antarctica - head to the South Pole and celebrate with a drink
If you ever make it to the South Pole, how amazing would it be to have a drink right there - at the bottom of the world. Get a beer and toast to a mega achievement in your life!
Having a beer at the South Pole must be a beer drinker's dream.
If you have managed to do all six of these I salute you!! I was happy with the four I managed to get in on my amazing Antarctica adventure back in 2010.
