About this activity

Sail through Ushuaia's iconic Beagle Channel on a 4-hour yacht expedition, spotting sea lions, penguins, and native seabirds in their natural habitat while learning regional history from a bilingual guide. This is one of South America's most remote and wildlife-rich waterways, offering an authentic window into Patagonian marine ecosystems.

Experience an exciting 4 hours of sailing on a Yacht in the Beagle Canal of Argentina! Choosing either a morning or afternoon departure, you will be picked up from your hotel in Ushuaia and driven to your vessel, where you will also meet your guide on this trip.  You will be able to observe local fauna such as sea lions, penguins and other local birds, in their natural habitat and your bilingual guide will also be filling you in with every history and details you need to know about the region, while enjoying a nice tea or coffee along with a snack. The tour concludes with a drive back to your hotel.
