• Bertha’s Beach - Bertha’s Beach is renowned as one of the premier wildlife locations in the Falklands. It is recognized as a wetland of international significance under the Ramsar Convention. Bertha’s Beach is designated as an Important Bird Area (IBA), a global benchmark established by BirdLife International. It hosts 500 breeding pairs of Gentoo penguins, along with a diverse array of other water birds. With a bit of luck, visitors might spot Peal’s and Commerson’s dolphins playing in the water. Overall, it is a unique spot in the Falklands, and we are delighted to offer this tour.
• Yorke Bay - During this segment of the tour, visitors will observe Gentoo penguins enjoying themselves on the beach at Yorke Bay. The colony is large, and there is always plenty happening in the penguin community! Visitors will see them play, interact, and swim in the sea. With some luck, there might even be sightings of visiting king penguins. The route through the dunes offers stunning views, reminiscent of a lunar landscape! A short 5-minute walk through the sand dunes is required to visit the penguins at Yorke Bay, so practical walking shoes are highly recommended! Younger guests often enjoy sliding down the sand dunes, so please dress them accordingly!
• Gypsy Cove - Gypsy Cove is a picturesque cove with a Caribbean ambiance. On sunny days, the sea’s color is breathtaking. It is part of a National Nature Preserve and is home to a colony of Magellanic penguins, along with abundant other wildlife. The colony is a brief walk up a sloping hill, with gravel paths and viewing terraces along the way.
• Lady Elizabeth Shipwreck - The Lady Elizabeth is a must-see in the Falklands. Exceptionally beautiful, she captivates attention, majestic even in her shipwrecked state. At low tide, visitors might have the chance to walk over to her for a closer look at Lady Liz.
• Stanley - As the southernmost capital city in the world, Stanley is surprisingly vibrant. It features a cathedral with the famous Whalebone Arch (crafted from whale jaws), a museum, the governor’s residence, and a Liberation Memorial. Several souvenir shops and cafes are ready to welcome visitors. The tour will showcase the city’s highlights from the car, and guidance will be provided for those wishing to explore further independently.
