OUR SUSTAINABILITY APPROACH

Far Corners is proud to guide adventurers through some of the planet’s last untouched frontiers while maintaining a deep commitment to sustainability. In conjunction with Terra Nova Expeditions, we believe that true conservation lies in collaboration, innovation, and a responsibility to protect the fragile environments we explore. Aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, we are focused on measurable change, both now and in the future.

From efficient, low-consumption engines and anti-fouling technology to water-saving systems and the elimination of single-use plastics, our operations are designed to minimize environmental impact on our expedition to the Antarctic.

We are also in talks with a number of climate organisations to decide where our 5% tour contributions are best directed for maximum impact. We look forward to sharing more as this develops because at Far Corners, we know that smaller footprints lead to greater preservation, for today's explorers and tomorrow’s generations.
