Falkland Islands Cruises

Seabird watching

Ocean, land, sky... The show is all around you. This enchanted setting is home to many bird species. The black-browed albatrosses take flight from the cliffs and twirl through dizzying drops before grazing the crest of a wave. Facing threats, these birds found a refuge in the cliffs of the Falkland Islands where they could reproduce in summer.
The 100,000 couples of Magellanic penguins, gentoos, rockhoppers and imperial shags also make their nests there. Each species marks its own territory.
New Island is a small piece of land to the west of the archipelago where you can observe a colony of rockhopper penguins, albatrosses and imperial shags. The Falkland Current is a cold marine current located west of the islands, which provides all these species with the prey they need to survive.
