Description

Enjoy a fantastic speedboat trip to the beautiful Magdalena and Marta Islands. You will discover cormorants, sea lions, and many other wonderful species.

Magdalena and Marta Islands Speedboat Trip

We will meet up at 6:30 am in Punta Arenas before heading to the Laredo dock, where we board a speedboat to begin a wonderful journey through the Strait of Magellan.

We will sail to the picturesque Magdalena Island where we disembark for one hour to go in search of the colony of Magellanic penguins that inhabit the area. You will be amazed by these friendly birds!

After this visit, we then set sail for Marta Island to observe its native fauna from the boat. We will see colonies of sea lions, cormorants, and Antarctic doves, among many other species.

Finally, we will return to the mainland, where we drop you back at the original starting point, or the Main Square, at 12 pm.

Muy buena organización. Te y café incluidos durante todo el recorrido. Se ven todos los animales sin ningún problema Muy respetuosos con el entorno Incluye una charla previa al avistamiento para saber más sobre el comportamiento de los animales. En nuestro caso el capitán excepcional nos dio mil explicaciones del funcionamiento de la naviera además tuvimos la suerte de ver una ballena y unos delfines negros. Excepcional!!

Very good organization. Tea and coffee included throughout the tour. You can see all the animals without any problem. Very respectful of the environment. Includes a talk prior to the sighting to learn more about the behavior of the animals. In our case, the exceptional captain gave us a thousand explanations of how the shipping company works, and we were lucky enough to see a whale and some black dolphins. Exceptional!!

Nos ha encantado. Ha cumplido totalmente con nuestras expectativas, ya que hemos podido observar muy de cerca los pingüinos, gaviotas y lobos marinos. Además la guía Nerea y sus compañeros Juan y Jairo han sido estupendos en las explicaciones, tanto sobre la vida marina en las islas como sobre costumbres. Un diez. Translate this opinion into English.

We loved it. It fully met our expectations, as we were able to observe the penguins, seagulls and sea lions up close. In addition, the guide Nerea and her companions Juan and Jairo were great in their explanations, both about marine life on the islands and about customs. A ten. Opinion translated. Show original.

Relatively good, far from 5h30m in description (hardly 4 hours). Isla Marta cut due to sea conditions (but it didn't look that bad). Sea lions and dolphins spotted on the way saved the day.
