We begin the navigation leaving from the Tourist Pier of our city, towards the center of the Beagle Channel, enjoying, as we move away, the panoramic view of the coast of Ushuaia.
We sail towards the southwest, approaching the sea lions island observing their permanent habitat, in a wonderful setting.
Continuing the navigation, we will go to the Birds island, habitat of Magellanic Cormorants and Imperial Cormorants, and a privileged sector to spot species of marine birds.
We continue sailing towards the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse.
Following the south coast of the Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego, when we get to Martillo Island, we will approach the beach and will observe how the colony of Magellanic Penguins that nest during the summer season approach the boat with remarkable curiosity, enter the sea by swimming under the catamaran and re-emerge. A party that invites us to take countless photographs.
From here we return by sailing to the Tourist Pier

The boat didn't circumnavigate Martillo Island and because of this we only saw Magellanic Penguins.
Papua and king penguins were on the other side of the island and the company refused to let the passage see them althoug it was included in the program of the activity.

The voyage was quite comfortable and exciting. We had ample time to enjoying watching and photographing the comorants, sea lions and penguins as well as the lighthouse. During the cruising time from one viewing area to the next, the indoor cabins were a welcomed relief from the cold. The guide was very personable and took the time to answer questions from the guests.
