　　Are you brave enough？4 cruises for adventure

　　Some adventure travel types may laugh at the idea of getting on a cruise ship, thinking of it as being too usual. They should get over that. There are places in the world that are best seen and experienced on water, including new destinations. Check out our picks for the 4 best adventure cruises.

　　Antarctica and the South Shetland Islands: Icebergs, glaciers (冰川), whales, penguins and elephant seals are the big draws to the "Great White Continent." In this destination list, you'll dress a heavy jacket for tours exploring the cold, bare landscape, blue­lighted icebergs and other sights. Upscale French line Ponant Cruises' 264­passenger ships cruise the region late November through January.

　　The Galapagos: Nature rules over these islands, about 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador, and local creatures are surprisingly unafraid of humans. You may find yourself stepping over sea lions to cross a beach, eye­to­eye with a blue­footed bird, diving with young sea lions and getting very close to a curious iguana (鬣晰). The 92­passenger Celebrity Xpedition cruises the islands year­round.

　　Alaska：Seeing a glacier break brings high drama. On small ship line Alaskan Dream Cruises you'll also communicate with bald eagles and seals as you quietly paddle in a remote bay. Travel routes avoid the tourist spots in favor of a Southeast Alaska wild experience - you're more likely to see a leaping whale than a jewelry store. The line's ships carry fewer than 60 passengers on spring and summer cruises.

　　The Arctic：Come for the polar bears that rule the North Pole, but stay for the astonishing event of the Midnight Sun, plus the sights of glaciers, icebergs and surprising areas of wildflowers. Keep your telescope balanced to spot elephant seals, white whales, bearded seals, rare birds and arctic deer in an extremely beautiful landscape. Hurtigruten's 318­passenger polar discovery ship MS Fram sails here June to August.
