South Georgia (South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands)
|

|
|
|
South Georgia is the second-largest and most mountainous of the sub-antarctic islands. Impressive peaks standing up to 3,000 m high are part of the Andes Bend from Tierra del Fuego to the Antarctic Peninsula. South Georgia is a paradise for ornithologists: around 60 species of birds live here, approximately 30 of which also nest on the island. A visit to the historic whaling station of Grytviken and the museum is particularly interesting. The simple grave of the Polar hero Sir Ernest Shackleton is a reminder of his famous expeditions. You can see the majestic wandering albatross on a visit to the island of Prion, as well as gentoo penguins, elephant seals and fur seals. The island of Salisbury Plain has the largest breeding site for king penguins in South Georgia.

Punta Arenas (Chile)

|
|
|
Punta Arenas is said to be the most southerly city on the planet. Prior to the opening of the Panama canal, the city on the Strait of Magellan was an important port shaped by a colourful mix of European immigrants. Luxurious villas owned by the sheep farming barons around the plaza line the city. The view over the colourful rooftops stretches across the Strait of Magellan to Tierra del Fuego. In the Summer people meet at the plaza, where large trees provide some much-welcomed shade.
