About

The cruise departs from Ushuaia’s Tourist Pier, offering panoramic views of the coast, including landmarks like the Maritime Museum and Mount Olivia. Sailing southwest, we approach Los Lobos Island to observe sea lions, then continue to Los Pájaros Island, home to Magellanic and Imperial cormorants. We sail on to the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse and see remains of the Monte Cervantes shipwreck. Crossing the Beagle Channel, we view Gable Island and Puerto Williams before reaching Martillo Island, where we observe curious Magellanic penguins swimming and nesting. After this unforgettable encounter, we return to Ushuaia, passing Estancias Túnel and Fique.
