The outer shores of Deception Island
We discovered that there was another ship anchored in Whaler's Bay already. We couldn't go there after all. Instead, we ended up visiting Pendulum Bay, and we would be able to swim after all!
Preparing the Zodiac craft for landing
We cruised around much of the island's outer shore (more cliffs than shore), and then passed through Neptune's Bellows, the caved-in opening in the wall of the caldera, and into the interior of the volcanic island. We passed Whaler's bay and the encroaching ship (the Explorer, which was violating an agreement by being there).
