• Ushuaia

  A sliver of a town that has been called a penal colony, a naval base, and a missionary headquarters in its time, Ushuaia is the southernmost city in the world, located on the far tip of South America as part of the Argentine province of Tierra del Fuego. Technically it is on an island with the Martial Mountains on the north and the Beagle Channel to the south, and while it may have been nothing more than a remote middle-of-nowhere destination for years, it has been rising in popularity in recent times as a jumping-off point for adventures to Antarctica and other activities such as hiking or winter sports within South America. Today, it could be considered a major tourist town for the area, complete with resorts, restaurants, and even a few casinos.
  
  Ushuaia is a small town with only around 6,000 residents, all of whom are crammed into a sliver of land around the edge of the water. The views are simply spectacular, with the mountains rising in the background and the water stretching out into the fore. And yet, for centuries, this area remained uninhabited by civilized man. Until the late 19th century there were only the Yamana Indians here, until the missionaries came, and they had been here for literally thousands of years prior to that.
  
  So what do you do in such a remote area? The easy answer would be “experience adventure”. You can head on up into the Martial range and either ski or hike the glaciers. Or you could hike up through the Tierra del Fuego National Park on one of the many trails, or visit the Cerro Castor during the winter months for plenty of winter sports. Many people kayak the Beagle Channel, or take a train ride on the Tren del Fin del Mundo to get a picturesque view of the National Park. Or you could head down to Antarctica. The choice is entirely up to you.

  A memorable sail through the Beagle Channel with Princess Cruise. The ship passed through a number of glaciers. Beautiful landscape throughout although a bit windy on the deck...Recommended
• Javier Matusevich
  It's water. Loads of it. A nice experience though.
• Richard Schagrin
  Soaring mountains and a historic lighthouse create an ideal backdrop at this southernmost tip of South America.
• Andrew Nugee
  One of the most beautiful experiences in the southern ocean
• Tony Wright
  Hmmm, it's a channel between south America and Antarctica so your experience will really depend on the size and type of ship or boat you are in. I crossed it in a very large Norwegian car ferry. Going out the crossing was very calm and hardly noticeable. However coming back was very choppy. We did see humpback whales though and there were orcas in the distance.
