Join us on a boat trip through the Strait of Magellan to Cape Froward, the southernmost point of the American mainland. Along the way, we'll hike to the renowned Cross of the Seas.
Cape Froward Adventure Tour Highlights
We will collect you from your hotel in Punta Arenas and set off to the Punta Arbol pier, where our boat excursion begins through the Strait of Magellan, connecting the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean.
As we traverse the waters, we will view the landscapes, including Magellanic forests, Andean peaks, and fjords. Highlights include Mount Tarn, the San Isidro lighthouse, and the bays of El Águila, El Indio, San Nicolás, and Rosas.
Our journey continues to Mount Sarmiento. If conditions are favorable, we may spot southern dolphins and sea lions near Cape Froward. We'll experience the name's origin if the weather permits a shore visit; otherwise, we will continue our nautical adventure.
Upon reaching Cape Froward, we will embark on a one-hour hiking expedition to the Cross of the Seas, one of the southernmost crucifixes. The panoramic views include parts of the Alberto de Agostini National Park.
After the hike, we will enjoy a picnic lunch with sandwiches, nuts, and a choice of tea or coffee.
Our return journey will take us back to Punta Arbol by boat, followed by a return to Punta Arenas, with an anticipated arrival at your hotel around 12 hours after pickup.
