Canal Beagle - We begin the navigation leaving from the Tourist Pier of our city, towards the center of the Beagle Channel, enjoying, as we move away, the panoramic view of the Ushuaia coast, seeing the most important buildings, Maritime Museum (former prison), Museum of the End of the World, the industrial area, and the Olivia and Cinco Hermanos mountains. We sail to the southwest, approaching the island of Los Lobos, where, from the boat, we can enjoy the view of specimens of sea lions, observing their permanent habitat, in a wonderful setting. Continuing navigation, we will go to the island of Los Pájaros, habitat of Magellanic Cormorants and Imperial Cormorants, and a privileged sector to spot specimens of the seabird.
We continue sailing towards the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse, in the archipelago of the same name. On these islets it is possible to observe parts of Monte Cervantes, a ship that was shipwrecked in 1930.
Following the south coast of the Big Island of Tierra del Fuego we will see the Estancia Swirl where the ship Monte Sarmiento is stranded. Crossing the Beagle Channel in the North-South direction we will see the Gable Island and the Puerto Williams Naval Base (located in Navarino Island, Republic of Chile). Upon arriving at Isla Martillo we approach the beach and there we remain. It is amazing to observe how the colony of Magellanic Penguins that nest during the summer season approach the boat with remarkable curiosity, they enter the sea swimming below the catamaran and emerging again. A party that invites us to take countless photographs.
From here we return by sailing to the Tourist Dock, sighting on the road, the Tunnel and Fique Stays.
