We depart from the tourist pier on board of a catamaran to navigate Beagle Channel and passengers are going to enjoy a pleasant guided tour. We will first have an approach to the birds island where you can admire the albatros, the cauquén, the gulls and ducks. Then we will reach the coast of “Sea Wolves Island” where different species of marine lions await us. Immersed in this natural environment and fresh air, we will continue navigating to “Les Eclaireurs” lighthouse where we will be able to observe imperial and magellan cormorants. We can also spot Puerto Almanza on the Argentine coast and Puerto Williams on the Chilean coast.

Once we arrive to Martillo island we will remain enchanted to see more tan 1000 nest of magellan penguins and some papua penguins. Right in front of Martillo island is Estancia Harberton, where we will descend and remain 4 houras. It is one of the oldest buildings in Tierra del Fuego. We will take a tour around the main buildings of the property that occupies 5 hectares of the 200 in total comprising mountains and lakes. The main activity of the Estancia was the breeding of sheep. We will be able to visit “Acatushun” museum and the cemetery. After completing the tour, the best way to conclude is to go to the restaurant to taste some local specialties. We will return to Ushuaia by bus.
