Itinerary
From the historic city of Punta Arenas, we will check-in, and then board. Once on board, we will make a welcome toast and introduce the Captain and his crew. Later, the ship will set sail towards the South end. Through the mythical Strait of Magellan and the Beagle Channel, we will enter Patagonia and the fjords of Tierra del Fuego.
We will arrive in the vicinity of the Marinelli Glacier in Ainsworth Bay. We will learn how life resurfaces after the retreat of the ice. We will start a walk through the wonderful subantarctic Magellanic forest. We will visit the Tuckers Islets where, from the Zodiacs, we will see Magellanic penguins and cormorants. In September and April, this excursion is replaced by a hike near a glacier in Brookes Bay.
We will sail through the Northwest arm of the Beagle Channel to enter and disembark in the Pía Fjord. We will make an excursion to the viewpoint from where you can see the homonymous glacier, whose main tongue extends from the top of the mountain range to the sea. After this unforgettable experience, we will continue our navigation under the majestic gaze of the "Avenida de Los Glaciares".
We will arrive at the Cabo de Hornos National Park, where we will disembark if the weather conditions allow it to experience the magic of walking through one of the southernmost points in the world, surrounded by charm and legends.
In the afternoon we will disembark at Bahía Wulaia, a historical site that was one of the largest settlements of the native Yámana canoeists. We will arrive at a viewpoint, walking through the Magellanic forest where Lengas, Coigües, cinnamon trees, and ferns grow, among other species.
