Don’t Set Sail without This Toy
Visiting The White Desert by superyacht is an awe-inspiring experience that offers total privacy, freedom, and access to many harder to reach spots. The yachts that cruise here hold amazing toy collections, often including helicopters and submersibles, but there is something special about being on the water itself. This is why we think the Red Shark Water Bike is a great addition to any Antarctic yachting voyage. Stay dry and keep yourself warm as you pedal past enormous icebergs, keeping an eye out for penguins and seals.
