Wildlife encounters are amazing. Marvel at the sparring of male elephant seals or the majestic black-browed albatross in flight. Enjoy the antics of penguins in their colonies, squabbling raucously with their neighbours, stealing nesting materials, or simply sitting silently to soak up the sun. Many experiences are guaranteed during summer months as birds and marine mammals have established colonies at locations around the islands. Sightings of whale pods and blows, rare visitors or other notable happenings are always shared amongst Islanders and visitors alike. copy.jpeg)
But one of the main attractions of a visit to the Falklands is to simply absorb the pace and opportunities of Island life. Enjoy the incredible experience of a stay on a remote island with just a handful of permanent human inhabitants, arriving in style on a small aircraft to a personal meet-and-greet at the airstrip. Islanders are renowned for their hospitality including hearty home-cooked meals and delicious baking. It is an experience that you will never forget.Number of results:
