Check availability →Good to know: Weather and wind matter on this exposed channel. Check port tax, check-in time and whether your sailing reaches Martillo Island; a standard lighthouse circuit usually does not.
Good to know
No. Many catamarans observe Martillo Island from the water; only selected products include landing.
Its entrance is about 12 km west of Ushuaia; tours, shuttles and private vehicles are possible.
Classic lighthouse circuits are shorter than penguin sailings; compare the endpoint, not just the title.
No. It has striking bays and cold, exposed shores, not a conventional warm-water beach holiday.
No. It is reached from El Calafate; Ushuaia has local hikes such as Martial and Vinciguerra.
The local tourism office gives roughly October to April, with the largest numbers from November to February.
