During a Secret Atlas Expedition Micro Cruise, we frequently encounter the magnificent BrΓ₯svellbreen. This imposing glacier, awe-inspiring from the water’s surface, reveals even more of its wonders from above.

Observe the intricate streams of water flowing through the ancient ice, creating a stunning visual reminiscent of the veins in our bodies 🌊. Just as these veins are vital to our well-being, this glacier plays an indispensable role in our planet’s ecosystem, underscoring the importance of protecting it.

Secret Atlas is by explores for explorers and when we heard that the Endurance, Shackleton’s ship had been discovered, we simply couldn’t get our hands down πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

β€œI think Shackleton realized that to be successful, to achieve things, you can’t just do it on your own,” says Shears, who together with his tenacious team discovered the legendary ship more than a decade after its disappearance.

Enjoy these highlights from our 2024 season, only made possible thanks to the amazing collaboration between Hyperborea and Secret Atlas. It has been a true adventure, born from our shared passion for authentic, small-group exploration of the Polar Regions.

Our partnership allowed us to stay true to our commitment to low-impact, responsible travel, helping guests experience the polar regions in a way that rekindles the true spirit of exploration.

Each expedition reaffirms our dedication to preserving these spectacular landscapes. Sharing this experience with such inspiring guests is nothing short of remarkable. Thank you!

During our expeditions, you may notice quaint cabins perched on hillsides or nestled along the beaches. They are trapper’s cabins, and there are over 300 of them throughout Svalbard.

For more than 200 years, these cabins have been integral to the region’s history. Crafted from wood, they showcase the ingenuity of trappers who sourced materials from driftwood and repurposed structures, despite the absence of native trees.

As you stand on the deck of our ship, with the biting wind against your face and feel the cold creeping in, you can’t help but fall in love with the scene before you. Your nose tingles, your breath crystallizes, yet your gaze remains fixed, entranced by what appears, at first, to be an endless, beautiful white canvas.

But you know. You know they’re there, just out of sight, sensing us, watching us. These creatures embody perfectly the art of adaptation, blending seamlessly into their world. They remind us of the profound beauty of harmonizing with one’s surroundings

Think you could spot them? Click link in the comments and catch a glimpse of these magnificent creatures in their white camouflage with us!

Secret Atlas - The Home Of Expedition Micro Cruises

Secret Atlas is the Home of Expedition Micro Cruises.

Secret Atlas specialises in small ship cruises (12 guests) led by an experienced expedition guide who will take you to some of the world’s most remote places including Svalbard and Greenland in 2021 with more locations due to be added in 2022.

What makes us different? Our expedition vessels take just 12 guests ensuring a more personal and intimate voyage than larger ships can offer. Small group numbers ensure a richer guest experience and lower impact on the environment, wildlife and cultures we visit.
