Cruise Overview


Tiny Stanley, capital of the Falklands, seems in many ways like a British village fallen out of the sky.

Many homes are painted in bright colours, adding visual appeal to this distant outpost.

Not far offshore, the wreck of the Lady Elizabeth, is one of the many vessels remaining as a silent testimonial to the region's frequent harsh weather conditions.The islands, also known by their Spanish name of Islas Malvinas, are home to arguably more tuxedo-clad inhabitants of the penguin variety than human residents.

Various species, such as Gentoo, Magellanic and the more elusive King penguins, either live here permanently or use the Falklands as a stopover on their migration route.

Darwin found the islands' flora and fauna fascinating - no doubt you will, too.
The remarkable beauty of the remote Falkland Islands can best be seen on New Island.

The westernmost of the inhabited islands of the archipelago, it is a wildlife and nature reserve, and an environmental conservation group protects its many birds and animals.

There are rookeries where Rockhopper Penguins and Blue-eyed Shags share the same nesting area.

Black-browed Albatrosses can be seen going about their daily routines and it is easy to spot Upland Geese.

More than 40 species of birds breed on the island.

Near the landing site is ‘Barnard’s barn’ — a restored stone structure going back to the early 19th century.

Lying in the sandy shallows in front of the barn is the wreck of Protector III, an old minesweeper used for seal hunting.
