Right in front of the Harberton Ranch Martillo Island is located where it is possible to see penguins between the months of October and April. There you can see more than 1,000 nests of the Magellanic species and about 9 nests of the Gentoo, the only ones in South America.
There are three colonies of Magellanic penguins in PatagoniaOne of them is located in this territory, being the only one in Tierra del Fuego. The walk covers about 800 m2 and runs through limited trails so as not to invade their natural habitat.
The Harberton Ranch is located 90 kilometers from the city of UshuaiaIt was founded in the second half of the 19th century by the British missionary Thomas Bridge. It has the closest port to Martillo Island and that is why the visits to the penguin colony start from there.
The tour begins with a tour of Ushuaia Bay. We sail through the Beagle Channel, home to all kinds of marine mammals. Above all, we want you to be comfortable: we go aboard our Canoero Catamarans. With 2018 and 2019 models, it is the most modern fleet of catamarans in Ushuaia.
From the boat, you will be able to appreciate the "Isla de los Pájaros". The biodiversity of the place is incredible. If you like birds, you are going to go crazy: barred eagles, Black-browed Albatrosses, Steamer Ducks, Gulls, Black-browed Gulls and Grey Gulls. Our guide will tell you curiosities and help you recognize each species.
The crossing continues to another unmissable point of the Bridges Archipelago: the Island of the Wolves. These animals are a lot of fun. They live in harem, that is to say that the male takes care of the whole group, especially during the breeding season, the sea lions know how to put on a show. Bring your camera, you will want to take a thousand pictures.
At Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse we make the most awaited stop. You will be able to take the famous photo with the lighthouse behind, that unmissable photo that we all want to take as a souvenir. Did you know that although many people call it the Lighthouse of the End of the World, this is incorrect? Our guide will tell you the history of this landmark and where the confusion comes from.
In addition, you will meet the birds that Charles Darwin fell in love with during his trip to Patagonia: the imperial cormorants and rock cormorants. And as in any self-respecting navigation, we tell you anecdotes of shipwrecks.
At Isla Martillo we dock for half an hour to watch the penguin colony. From our comfortable catamaran, we watch the Magellanic penguins, Gentoo penguins and some King penguins (if we are lucky). They are a real character! They sunbathe, swim, and walk in a funny way. At the end, we come across the semi-sunken hull of the Monte Sarmiento Steamship.
We will return to the port of Ushuaia overlooking the Martial mountain ranges. This is the moment when you look at the horizon and are grateful for having made such a beautiful trip.
