Admire majestic humpback whales in beautiful Patagonia and discover the stunning landscapes of the Strait of Magellan on this unforgettable sunrise boat trip from Punta Arenas.

Whale Watching in Patagonia

After meeting at the scheduled time on Calle José Nogueira in Punta Arenas, we'll transfer to Carrera Bay, where we'll board a boat and set sail on the waters of the Strait of Magellan.

During the first part of the boat trip, we will enjoy the glorious sunrise over Tierra del Fuego and the Fuerte Bulnes fort. This stronghold was the first Chilean construction on the Strait of Magellan. The warm glow from the rising sun on the horizon will enchant you!

We'll pass in front of Cape Froward, the southerly most point on the mainland of America. From the boat, you'll get to see elephant seals and sea lions resting on the rocks. You'll also have the opportunity to admire humpback whales as these enormous creatures are native to these protected waters, part of the Francisco Coloane Marine Park. What's more, we'll approach the glaciers of Santa Inés Island to admire these gigantic ice masses.

Around midday, we will recharge our batteries with a tasty lunch on board the boat, before slowly making our way back to Punta Arenas, admiring the spectacular landscapes of this remote corner of Patagonia along the way.

The tour ends back at the original departure point.
