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

At the designated time, we'll collect you from your hotel in Punta Arenas and set off on a road trip to the Punta Arbol pier. Here, our adventure begins as we embark on a boat excursion through the Strait of Magellan, connecting the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean.

As we traverse the waters, we'll enjoy views of extraordinary landscapes, including the Magellanic forests, Andean peaks, and captivating fjords. We will encounter Mount Tarn, the San Isidro lighthouse, and the bays of El Águila, El Indio, San Nicolás, and Rosas.

Our journey southward continues to Mount Sarmiento. If conditions permit, we may spot native wildlife, such as southern dolphins and sea lions, near Cape Froward. The name's origin will be revealed during a shore visit if weather allows; otherwise, our nautical adventure will continue.

Upon reaching Cape Froward, we'll embark on a one-hour hiking expedition to the Cross of the Seas, one of the southernmost crucifixes in the world. The views from here include parts of the Alberto de Agostini National Park.

Following the hike, we'll have a picnic lunch, including sandwiches, nuts, and a choice of tea or coffee.

Our return journey will take us back to Punta Arbol by boat, and then we will head back to Punta Arenas, with an expected arrival at your hotel around 12 hours after pickup.
