Confirmation: MANUAL
I lived a unique experience sailing the mythical Beagle Canal on an excursion that combines unforgettable landscapes and emblematic fauna of the region. During the tour we will visit Bird Island, home to numerous species of seabirds; the Isle of Wolves, where we will observe sea lions in their natural habitat; and the iconic Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse.
The highlight of the experience will be the landing on Martillo Island, where you will have the opportunity to take a guided walk among Papuan penguins in their natural environment. For approximately 30 minutes, you will be able to observe them very closely, know their behavior and enjoy a truly unique experience on this sub-Antarctic island.
This activity allows a direct and respectful connection with the fauna, becoming an incomparable way to live the nature of Tierra del Fuego.
