The Navigation starts from the Tourist Dock, crossing the Bay of Ushuaia, reaching the Beagle Channel through Paso Chico. There, we will sail around the Bird Island, where we will see Skuas, Black-browed Albatross, Steamer Ducks, Cauquenes, Grey Gulls and Cook Gulls. Then we head to the Sea Lion Island, where we will see seals, of one and two hairs.

Later, navigation will take us to Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse, where we will see colonies of Imperial Cormorants, and Rockers Cormorants.

We continue towards Martillo Island, to see the Magellanic Penguin from the catamaran at the shore of the beach. It is in these icy waters where penguins nest and have their young.

Navigation ends at Estancia Harberton, where we descend to meet the first Natural Reserve of Tierra del Fuego, the shearing shed, carpentry area, boat house, ending with the main house's garden. We will visit the Museum of Marine Birds and Mammals "Acatushún" and the "Manacatush" Teahouse (consumption not included).

We return to Ushuaia by land, discovering the secrets of the National Route 3, seeing rivers, beaver dams, "flag trees" and beautiful valleys. We will stop at the Paso Garibaldi's viewpoint, to have a privileged view of the Escondido and Fagnano lakes.
