Take a cruise to the small but magical island of Magdalena filled with Magellanic penguins, an elusive South American penguin breed native to Argentina, the Falkland Islands, and of course Chile. There are no permanent inhabitants on this island other than the penguins, but Park Rangers are at work protecting the island year round. It is located about 32 kilometers Northeast of the port town of Punta Arenas. Consider cruising the Patagonia region on a small ship cruise to be able to access smaller reefs, ports, and beaches.
