Description

We begin our navigation departing from the touristic pier, heading towards the Beagle Channel. As we move away from the coast, we enjoy panoramic views of Ushuaia, the industrial area, and the majestic Olivia and Cinco Hermanos mountains. We´ll visit Bridges Islands, where we disembark. The hike on the island is easy and accessible to everyone, offering a unique opportunity to explore a small island in the middle of the Beagle Channel. We board again and sail towards the southwest, approaching Los Lobos Island, where, from the boat, we can enjoy the view of specimens of sea lions, observing their permanent habitat, in a wonderful setting. Continuing our navigation, we will head towards Isla de Los Pájaros, home to Magellanic Cormorants and Imperial Cormorants, making it a prime spot for observing a variety of marine birdlife. Our journey then takes us to the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse, located in the archipelago of the same name, near the site where the ship Monte Cervantes was shipwrecked in 1930. At each of these points of interest, the catamaran will stop and make several turns, allowing passengers to capture the best photographs. On our return, we will get views of the Túnel and Fique Estancias. As we approach Ushuaia, we will be greeted by the impressive backdrop of Mount Martial and its glacier, framing the city beautifully.
