About This Tour
A tour that combines Stanley with wildlife stops like Kelp Point and Gypsy Cove is special because it blends cultural history and local highlights in the world’s most southerly capital with close-up encounters with iconic sub-Antarctic wildlife. In Stanley you’ll see charming British-style architecture, the Christ Church Cathedral, the Whalebone Arch, historic monuments, shipwrecks and hear local stories that bring the Falklands’ heritage to life. From there you head out in a 4×4 across rugged landscapes to Kelp Point, where you can watch massive Southern Elephant Seals lazing on the shore alongside playful gentoo penguins in their natural habitat — often with penguins coming close if you stay still. Then at Gypsy Cove near Stanley, you’ll enjoy a scenic bay and Magellanic penguins nesting among the tussac grass and often a variety of other birds, all against a dramatic white-sand beach backdrop.
