Local Attractions
Volcano Sponge of McMurdo Sound
Historical landmark
1 mi
THE QUEST TO DELAY AGING and look younger is as old as civilization itself. Who better to get some tips from than the oldest living animal: the volcano sponge Anoxycalyx joubini, found off the McMurdo shelf in Antarctica, thought to be nearly 15,000 years old. The sponge’s secret? Living in extremely cold conditions deep under the ocean.

Erebus Ice Tongue Caves
Park
11 mi
An ice tongue is a unique glacial formation created by an ice stream that flows faster than the surrounding ice and thus pushes out to sea ahead of the glacier’s edge. Moreover, this activity needs to take place in a protected harbor so that the ice tongue remains intact, rather than being broken up by strong currents or collisions with icebergs.
