Here are a few things it pays to remember before you visit South Georgia: first, don’t step on the penguins; second, don’t run if an Antarctic fur seal or a southern elephant seal charges at you (they’re bluffing); and third, don’t be fixated on the islands’ most famous permanent resident – there’s more to South Georgia than downing a shot of whisky beside Ernest Shackleton’s grave. The islands of

    A few years ago I organised a 40th birthday party on a Malaysian island for 10 of our closest friends only to discover I’d booked us in during Ramadan (a month of fasting for Muslims) and we couldn’t get an alcoholic drink, even in our resort.
