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 Cormorans.
We continue towards Martillo Island to see, from the catamaran at the shore, the Magellan penguin colony that inhabits that place. It is in these icy waters where penguins nest and have their young. Sailing back, we will see all the mountain range surrounding the city of Ushuaia.
*There's no disembark in the Martillo Island.
*The Magellan penguins are migratory birds and are in the Martillo Island from the beginning of October to the beginning of April. However, there are more specimens between November and February.
