This morning we awoke in the historic Straits of Magellan, named after the famous expedition on which they were discovered and during which Captain Juan Sebastian Elcano completed the first circumnavigation of the globe. We positioned the ship in the lee of Isla Carlos, Francisco Coloane Marine Park, and enjoyed a very pleasant Zodiac cruise in calm waters. Dolphins, geese, cormorants, turkey vultures, caracaras, and a kingfisher greeted us as we explored this wild island. After lunch, we navigated into the serene Lissan Cove and prepared the kayaks for a fun adventure. A few small islands were ours to enjoy for the day. Finally, our staff put on an entertaining recap to delight in the day’s journey.
