A spectacular port. Claiming to be the most southern city in the world. The port is base for most Patagonia and Antarctic expeditions. Mountain ranges are just a short distance away. We did a boat trip to a penguin rookery. Along the way there were sea lions, seals, cormorants and penguins. On the way back we saw Orca. This was a bonus. On the way out in the Beagle Channel, named for the ship Darwin was on, it was late and sunset hit too early to see the glaciers.

This has to be one of the most beautiful ports in the world.
