In case of extreme weather conditions, the Beagle Channel excursion may be rescheduled or adapted to ensure the safety of the passengers.
What clothing is recommended for the Sea Lion Island & Lighthouse Navigation?
Since the tour navigates the Beagle Channel year-round, it is essential to wear warm, windproof clothing, even during the summer. It is also recommended to bring gloves, a hat, and sunglasses, as the Patagonian wind can be very strong and constant throughout the navigation.
Is the Sea Lion Island & Lighthouse Navigation suitable for small children?
Yes, the tour allows infants from 0 years old and offers a reduced fare for children aged 4 to 11. However, since it is a 3.5-hour boat tour, it’s important to consider in advance how well children tolerate the cold and the boat’s movement.
