Traveling to Antarctica is the pinnacle of exploration, from crossing the world's most treacherous sea to seeing pristine ecosystems. If you're feeling particularly adventurous, trekking across glaciers or the polar plunge is considered a rite of passage.

### Canada

Canada is the world's second largest country, which means endless adventure opportunities no matter which season it is. You can walk with polar bears, watch grizzly bears, and canoe in isolated lakes to spot moose. Not to mention, because Canada's coastline is the longest in the world, there's a plethora of coastal adventure, such as kayaking amongst a pod of whales or sea lions, and fishing for salmon and halibut!



British Columbia, Canada

### Chile

Nestled snug between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountains, Chile's Patagonia region gives explorers endless opportunities when checking out Torres del Paine National Park. Explore Atacama Desert, where you'll feel like you've landed on the moon while exploring geysers and salt-flats.

### Costa Rica

Families traveling together love heading to Costa Rica for its gorgeous mix of animals, ecosystems, and ways for adventure-lovers to relish in them. From surfing schools to relaxing in hot springs, there's something for everyone. If you prefer staying on land, you can explore 28 national parks, go on canopy walks, soar through the treetops on ziplines, or go whitewater rafting.

### Galapagos Islands

With its location 600 miles from Ecuador, animal lovers and outdoor adventurers feel like the Galapagos Islands are heaven on earth. You can explore Devil's Crown, an extinct volcanic cone near Floreana Island. Watch sea lions sunbathe on Gardner Bay's beach or check out the giant tortoises on Santa Cruz, and more! There are different options available to be able to experience the islands. I highly recommend going on a smaller boat, so that when you’re spending time on the islands there will be just a handful of you rather than a large crowd. It certainly makes for a more intimate experience and it’s a lot easier to get great shots of the scenery and wildlife without people in them!

### Greenland

Greenland's outdoor activities, untouched landscapes, and indigenous culture tick off boxes for many adventure travelers. From hiking past herds of reindeer on the Arctic Circle Trail to kayaking among the Southern Fjord's icebergs, there's no shortage of adventurous activities in this country!

### Guatemala

There are plenty of adventure opportunities in Guatemala. For example, you can take a one-hour hike up Volcano Pacaya or go overnight camping near Acatenango's summit. With the country featuring 30 volcanoes, endless wildlife watching and kayaking, adventure travellers won't have trouble finding fun things to do!

No matter if you want to hike Iceland's wide-open spaces, go whale watching, discover glaciers, snorkel between the European and North American continents, or gaze at the awe-inspiring Northern Lights, this country is the epitome of adventure!
