Legendary Location, Led by the Best: Quark Expeditions Announces Shane Evoy as Snow Hill Expedition Leader for 2023

SEATTLE, May 4, 2023 /CNW/ -- Quark Expeditions, the global leader in polar adventures, is excited to announce that renowned polar guide Shane Evoy will serve as Expedition Leader for its voyages to Antarctica's remote Snow Hill penguin colony in November, 2023.

With nearly 30 years of experience in Antarctica, Evoy is one of only a few people worldwide to have visited Snow Hill multiple times—including more than 20 successful landings as an Expedition Leader. As a veteran member of the company's preeminent team, he has inspired Quark Expeditions' guests on voyages to unprecedented polar destinations for more than two decades.

"Shane leads with both technical precision and extraordinary passion," said Andrew White, President of Quark Expeditions. "For our Snow Hill guests onboard Ultramarine, the once-in-a-lifetime experience of pursuing this legendary location will be made even more magical by its equally legendary Expedition Leader, Shane Evoy."

Along with his deep experience, Shane brings a belief in the ability of every expedition guest to go farther, and go beyond. "To step boldly outside the familiar can bring remarkable rewards," said Evoy. "I am thrilled to return to Snow Hill—one of the most majestic settings imaginable to help guests take their time, in a rare and remote location, to discover their own capabilities."

Quark Expeditions invites explorers to join Shane Evoy onboard Ultramarine for its November 16 or November 24, 2023 departures of the voyage Emperor Penguin Quest: Expedition to Snow Hill.
