Walking with Penguins in Ushuaia, Patagonia, Argentina

Ushuaia is a great place to enjoy different landscapes, like Tierra del Fuego National Park, Fagnano and Escondido Lakes in the heart of Tierra del Fuego Island, and of course navigation in the Beagle Channel. There are many options, but one of these is interesting because you can walk among penguins. Yes, this activity is available from July to the middle of September, and it´s amazing because you will be walking with these animals.

The activity starts with a pick-up from the commercial dock of Ushuaia. We will be sailing the Beagle Channel in the northeast direction for two and a half hours approximately. During the tour, we will observe the different islands where the Sea lions are located. We will be able to observe the imperial cormorants in the bird´s island and then the southernmost lighthouse in all of Argentina, Les Eclaireurs lighthouse. We’ll keep sailing until we reach Harberton Ranch an estancia from where we will board a zodiac to sail for around 15 minutes and get to Martillo Island. With a specialized guide, we will stay on the island for 30 minutes visiting the Papua penguins that live on the island throughout the year. We will always be accompanied by a guide who will give us information about what we are seeing and also ensure that the rules of conduct of the island are complied with. It´s an unforgettable experience because these animals are very quite.

The program starts at 2 pm and the duration is approximately 7 hours.
