NAVIGATIONS ALONG BEAGLE CHANNEL
Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego

Beagle Channel, with its bays, islets and rich flora and fauna, deserves to be visited. So as to make this tour, you can choose between several boats: catamarans, motorboats and motor sailing boats, dingy boats and vessels. Lasting of these trips varies according to the kind of boat and circuit.

NAVIGATIONS DEPARTING FROM USHUAIA

An excursion that could be considered as classic, and it is available all year round, is the one called Sea Lions's Island. This voyage goes until the Les Eclaireurs lighthouse, that shows the entrance to Ushuaia's bay to the navigators.
During the circuit several species of birds and colony of sea lions and Antarctic fur seals are seen. A variant of this excursion, available just in summer, leaves from Ushuaia towards Lapataia Bay in Tierra del Fuego National Park, from where you come back to make the classical excursion to the Sea Lions´ Island. Some options (in both excursions) include trekking.
From mid of October till beginning of April, the navigation to the Sea Lions´ Island-Penguins'Rookery-Harberton Ranch leaves regularly (this excursion could be considered as a three in one tour, you can choose if you want to take the entire tour or just the first circuits). After going through the Sea Lions's Island and Les Eclaireurs lighthouse, it continues to Martillo Island (settlement of Magellan penguins during summer).
If you take the entire excursion, the navigation continues to Harberton Ranch, first ranch established in the province, where a guided trekking takes place.

NAVIGATIONS DEPARTING FROM BAHÍA ENSENADA

From Bahía Ensenada, in Tierra del Fuego National Park, and if weather conditions allows it, you will be able to navigate on board dingy boats towards Redonda Island (where a footpath gives you the opportunity to enjoy a beautiful panoramic view of the channel) Lapataia Bay or the XXVI Boundary.

NAVIGATIONS DEPARTING FROM HARBERTON RANCH

A dingy boat makes regular departures, in summer, leaving from the ranch to the penguins'rookery in Martillo island (another option for those who want to know the settlement of penguins making a short navigation).
