Galathea 3's route

Galathea 3 left Copenhagen in August 2006 and will return in April 2007

The course initially took the ship to the North Atlantic, with stops in the Faeroe Islands and Greenland. Then the route turns south along the west coast of Afrika to Cape Town. The expedition continues across The Indian Ocean to Australia and The Solomon Islands, via New Zealand and Antarktis to Valparaiso, north along the west coast of South America to the Galapagos Islands, through the Panama Canal to the Caribbean. Galathea 3 concludes its circumnavigation of the globe with a visit to Boston, whereupon it will arrive back in Copenhagen ultimo April 2007.
