We depart from the local port towards Alicia Island, where we will observe a colony of one-hair sea lions. Next, we head to Birds Island, home to colonies of royal and imperial cormorants, where it is possible to see their chicks from spring to autumn.
We continue navigating to another small island, where, depending on the time of year, we find two-hair sea lions. Very close is the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse, an authentic symbol of the city of Ushuaia, built in 1919. From there, we see the island of rock cormorants.
On the return, we disembark on Bridges Island to walk a trail interpreting the flora and avifauna, learning about the history of the Yámana aborigines. On this island are the largest Yámana anthropogenic shell middens in the region.
Being the largest island, we reach the highest panoramic point, from where we observe the magnificence of the Beagle Channel with the city of Ushuaia in the distance.
During the journey, we share coffee with liquor, different varieties of tea, a delicious hot chocolate with cookies, and, of course, the typical Argentine mate.
