Summary

Description
English: A penguin on South Georgia looks nonchalantly on as HMS Edinburgh passes by the South Atlantic island.

HMS Edinburgh has paid a visit to South Georgia as part of her patrol of the South Atlantic and islands of British overseas territorys. Edinburgh anchored off King Edwards Point (KEP) which gave members of the ships company the oppertunity to go ashore and visit the whaling station at Grytviken, also to see the wide variety of wildlife including penguins and seal's.

HMS Edinburgh is currently deployed to conduct maritime security patrols around the British South Atlantic Islands, including the Falklands and South Georgia. On her journey south the type 42 Destroyer will visit a variety of countries off the West coast of Africa and arrive in the Falklands in mid-Jul. On completion of her tasking Edinburgh is due to arrive home in Portsmouth in Dec 2011.
