Sailing Ushuaia Beagle Channel in a yatch
Description
We will enjoy a relaxing yatch sailing through the historic and challenging Beagle Channel, the cradle of countless historic shipwrecks in these icy waters south of the Strait of Magellan. One of the objectives will be to obtain the typical postcard with the lighthouse behind us. We set sail from the tourist pier along the wide Ushuaia Bay, observing from another perspective the profile of the city of Ushuaia and the geographical distribution at the foot of the Andes Mountains; until reaching the Beagle Channel through the Paso Chico. There we sail around the Island of the Birds where we appreciate the Fuegian birds such as Skúas, Steam Ducks, Cauquenes, Cook Gulls and Gray Gulls. We go on around the sea lions’ island where we can see specimens of sea lions with one and two hairs. Both islands belong to the Bridges archipelago.

The was an excellent and personal journey! Only 20 ppl went on this tour. The guide spoke English and Spanish. We had a snack, saw the highlights and had a great little hike.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your review! We’re really happy you enjoyed the Beagle Channel yacht sailing and the small-group experience, along with the bilingual guiding, snacks, and the little hike. We’d love to welcome you back in Ushuaia for another special adventure!
This tour was awesome. It advertised as 4 hours and we received 4 full hours. The tour was Originally set for a day earlier, but strong winds caused the guide to reschedule for the next day. The company personally phoned us to notify and reschedule the tour. We appreciated that. The guide spoke both English and Spanish fluently and kept us abreast of every bird, seal, and flower! The weather was perfect for the trek…an easy path to follow to a showcase photo spot! We recommend this tour if you like smaller more personable tours.

Beautiful excursion…. I have seen what I had expected…. Plenty on Pingouins !!! One thing… the captain made a somewhat risky maneuver... we swayed a little too much. Finally we were ok…
Thanks for your opinion and rating!!
Fantastic reasonably priced small group tour. Up close look at sea lions, penguins, numerous seabirds and if you’re lucky you may see a minke whale. Plus a wonderful short hike on a small island featuring local flora and fauna. Friendly and knowledgeable captain and assistant. Don’t hesitate to book this tour!
The experience is very good, the boat is small and goes few people, as they take care of you with all protocols. The guide in this case was Andrés who caught up with us and explained what everything would be like and then Cristian in the navigation, both know a lot, with excellent explanations and great recommendations. Latitude of looked like you with this exit. It lasted almost all afternoon, including warm infusions and animal watching, even a whale appeared!! They were kind enough to consider that we were with baby and even offer to take a picture inside the yacht with the lighthouse in the background the whole family. The part that goes down to the island (depends on the weather) is very interesting too, and very beautiful. They showed off!! Thank you so much!!
Muchas gracias TheTravelerExpert. Exactamente como decís, se puede avistar fauna y flora en estado natural, acompañado de la explicación de los guías abordo, lo cual enriquece mucho más la visita. Lobos marinos, cormoranes entre la fauna que podemos ver. Tuvieron mucha suerte de ver ballenas, no siempre se da. Los esperamos para navegar nuevamente por las aguas del mítico Canal Beagle. Le diremos al equipo tus comentarios. Saludos desde la ciudad del Fin del Mundo.
