Discover the fascinating fauna and stunning natural scenery of the Beagle Channel and its islands on this panoramic catamaran cruise. We'll also explore Puerto Karelo on foot!

Beagle Channel Cruise & Sea Lion Island

After meeting up at Ushuaia tourist pier, we'll set sail towards the islands of the Beagle Channel, the narrow waterway in Tierra del Fuego that serves as the natural border between Argentina and Chile.

Our cruise will take us near to Isla de los Pájaros, or Bird Island, where you can observe various species of birds, including seagulls, albatrosses, and ducks. The trip will continue to Isla de los Lobos, or Sea Lion Island, where you can photograph the sea lion colony.

We will also stop at the small islet with the Les Éclaireurs Lighthouse, home to a large colony of cormorants, and learn about the shipwreck of the SS Monte Cervantes, which sank in the 1930s.

The next stop will be at Puerto Karelo, where we'll disembark for a brief 20-minute guided tour, offering the chance to photograph local wildlife. After the walking tour, we'll return to the boat for the cruise back to the starting point, arriving after our 2.5 hour tour.
