The tour starts at two different times: 7:30 a.m. in the morning and 1:30 p.m. in the afternoon, departing from Muelle Prat (standard option) or with pick-up from your accommodation in Punta Arenas (plus option). Before departure, you will receive your boarding pass and all the necessary information via WhatsApp so that you can travel with peace of mind.
We will set sail on a modern catamaran bound for the legendary Magdalena Island, sailing for 1 hour and 30 minutes through the historic Strait of Magellan. During the crossing, it is possible to spot Peale’s dolphins, sea lions, and even whales that visit these southern waters.
On Magdalena Island, you will walk along an 800-meter (2,625-foot) trail that passes through the largest Magellanic penguin colony on the continent. More than 60,000 breeding pairs live here, alongside cormorants, gulls, and other seabirds. The walk ends at the Magdalena Island Lighthouse, built in 1902, which is one of the region’s heritage icons. The visiting time on the island is approximately 1 hour.
At the end of the experience, we will return by catamaran to the Prat Pier in Punta Arenas. The estimated arrival time is 12:30 PM for the morning tour and 6:30 PM for the afternoon departure.
