A trip down the Beagle Channel. We saw penguins but did not get out of the boat. They were trying to up-sell us photos and various trinkets. I guess that makes sense…

Excellent! The best tour to see the Lighthouse, Beagle Channel and Martillo Island. Totally recommend it! Very easy to find location, expedite boarding and reasonable prices for snacks during sailing. Time to take pictures and a very interesting history telling from the guide.

This is a once in a lifetime experience to actually be walking around on an island that inhabits two different penguin species. Wish we could have spent more time as it was so fascinating observing them. Our tour guide was Tomas who kept us well informed about the area and the penguins. The boat ride in the afternoon was also really nice getting to see sea lions and other birds.
