The remote beauty of the Beagle Channel, a storied waterway named after the HMS Beagle, which sailed the region in the 1820s, offers a captivating catamaran experience that takes in island coastlines, magnificent scenery, and abundant wildlife and seabirds. Your 5.5-hour eco-adventure follows the wake of a voyage by Charles Darwin through these historic waters and threads between snow-capped mountains, rocky outcrops and shrub forests. Glide down glassine waterways and get an up-close view of Isla de los Pajaros, inhabited by a colony of black and white imperial cormorants, and Isla de los Lobos, where two species of sea lions are typically seen on the rocky shore. Sail through Les Éclaireurs Archipelago for the stately lighthouse bearing the same name. The highlight of the day is Hammer Island, populated by a colony of elegant Magellanic penguins. The captain will drop anchor to make the most of this one-of-a-kind photo opportunity. Enjoy a snack on board, then return to port with a camera filled with incredible memories of the day.
