Navigation: Beagle Postcards
Duration
3 hours
Overview
-
We will enjoy a relaxing catamaran sailing through the historic and challenging Beagle Channel, cradle of countless historic shipwrecks in these icy waters south of the Strait of Magellan. One of the objectives will be to obtain the typical postcard with the lighthouse.
We set sail from the local tourist dock along the wide Ushuaia Bay, observing the city of Ushuaia.
We will sail around the Island of the Birds where we appreciate the Fuegian bird watching Skúas, Black-browed Albatross, Steam Ducks, Cauquenes, Cook Gulls and Gray Gulls; and from Isla de los Lobos where we can see specimens of sea lions with one and two hairs. Both islands belong to the Bridges archipelago. Upon reaching the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse (The Illuminators or also the colloquially misnamed the Lighthouse of the End of the World), we can appreciate the colonies of Imperial Cormorants and Rock Cormorants.
