Beginning of the experience
Between 13:00 and 17:00 hrs, we will check in at the Arturo Prat Pier (1398 Costanera del Estrecho Avenue) in Punta Arenas to embark starting at 18:00 hrs. Once on board, we will have a welcome toast and introduce the Captain and his crew. Later, the ship will set sail towards the southernmost point. Through the legendary Strait of Magellan and the Beagle Channel, we will venture into Patagonia and the fjords of Tierra del Fuego.
We will arrive in the vicinity of Marinelli Glacier in Ainsworth Bay. We'll learn about how life re-emerges after the ice retreats and take a hike through the marvelous Magellanic subantarctic forest.
We will visit Tuckers Islets, where, from the Zodiacs, we will observe Magellanic penguins and cormorants. In September and April, this excursion is replaced by a hike near a glacier in Brookes Bay.
We will sail through the Northwest arm of the Beagle Channel to enter and disembark at Pia Fjord. We will take an excursion to the viewpoint from where you can observe the glacier of the same name, whose main tongue extends from the top of the mountain range to the sea. After this unforgettable experience, we will continue our navigation under the majestic gaze of the "Avenue of the Glaciers."
We will arrive at Cape Horn National Park, where we will disembark if weather conditions allow, to experience the magic of walking through one of the southernmost points in the world, surrounded by enchantment and legends.
In the afternoon, we will disembark at Wulaia Bay, a historical site that was one of the largest settlements of the Yámana canoe natives. We will reach a viewpoint by walking through the Magellanic forest where lengas, coihues, cinnamon trees, and ferns, among other species, thrive.
