Ushuaia to Puerto Williams: Beagle Channel Crossing
How to Get from Ushuaia to Puerto Williams?
If you’re in Ushuaia and want to travel to the Chilean city of Puerto Williams, this is the best option. We’ll meet at the Dique Luján pier, where we’ll help you board the speedboat that will take you across from Ushuaia to Puerto Williams.
At 9:30 am, the boat will depart toward Puerto Navarino. During the 40-minute crossing, we’ll sail along the Beagle Channel, enjoying views of snow-capped mountains and the small islands that separate Argentina and Chile.
Upon arrival in Puerto Navarino, Chile, we’ll take a minibus to Puerto Williams. Along the way, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the southern tip of the American continent. Did you know you’re at the end of the world? Throughout the journey, you’ll discover the flora and fauna of one of the most remote places on the planet. It’ll be a truly special trip!
After a total travel time of 3 hours, we’ll drop you off in the center of Puerto Williams so you can explore this destination on your own.
