BEAGLE CHANNEL CRUISE CRUCEROS AUSTRALIS

Destination: Ushuaia, Cape Horn, Wulaia Bay, Argentina, Magdalena island, Punta Arenas, Chile

"Sail the Beagle Channel in Charles Darwin?? footsteps, wonder at the majesty of nature with its spectacular glaciers, fascinating wildlife and imposing scenery on board a Cruceros Australis ship.

Crown your voyage of discovery by visiting Cape Horn National Park, where you have the opportunity, weather permitting, to set foot on the final land mass before Antarctica.

Both the Mare Australis and Via Australis are comfortable and modern expedition ships which were specially built for navigating these waters at the tip of the Americas. There are daily shore excursions and informative evening lectures as well as fine gastronomy, comfortable cabins and excellent facilities making your expedition cruise a great and pleasurable adventure.

The sailing season is from September to April. Departures from Ushuaia, Argentina, for the 4 day/3 night expedition cruise, are on Wednesdays and Saturdays. From Punta Arenas, Chile, for the 5 day/4 night itinerary, departures are on Saturdays and Tuesdays.

Not only is the cruise a worthy expedition in itself but it is a novel way of traveling from Ushuaia to Punta Arenas and vice versa.

Highlights

Some of the highlights that are visited in both directions are Cape Horn National Park where, weather permitting, one may disembark and Wulaia bay which was one of the places Darwin disembarked at in the Beagle and which was once the largest Yamana aboriginal settlement.
