Travel And Tourism In Falkland Islands

The Malvinas Islands are a remote archipelago of the South Atlantic, located in the Argentine Sea 500 km from that country.

The Malvinas Islands are a popular tourist spot for people from all over the world, due to its history and its great variety of tourist activities.

The most recognized tourist spots are the Argentine Port, the main port and the only city in the Malvinas Islands; the sighting of five different penguin colonies and virgin vegetation, and the Darwin Cemetery, among others. In addition, the sheltered coves, the long white sandy beaches and the vertiginous cliffs present allow visitors varied views, particularly appreciated by photographers.

Being located near Cape Horn, you can see essentially marine fauna. The Sea Lion Island is a privileged destination for ecological tourism where you can see seals, elephant seals and many birds.

The strongest period of the Malvinas tourist season occurs from November to March. During this period, the bulk of the visits seek to discover the migratory phenomenon of the various species of penguins and albatrosses that inhabit the region.
