| M.V. Mare Australis is an
expedition cruise ship that sails through the Strait of Magellan
and the Beagle Channel and explores one of the wildest and most
beautiful regions of the world: Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, at
the southernmost tip of the South American continent.
Offering an alternative of 3 or 4-night
cruises, from October to April each year, Mare Australis set sail
every Saturday from the Chilean city of Punta Arenas, and every
Wednesday from the Argentinean city of Ushuaia in Tierra del
Fuego. See:
Itineraries
The journey begins by sailing along channels,
bays, fjords, passing glaciers, snow-capped mountains, islands,
and unexplored forests of incomparable beauty. You will be
accompanied by penguins, elephant seals, and sea lions. The
imposing Serrano, D'Agostini, Condor, Pia, Garibladi, and other
glaciers will oversee your journey, and their majesty will remain
engraved in your memory forever.
You will experience sights such as these
until we reach Cape Horn, the last promontory before crossing to
Antarctica and the point where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans
merge through the Drake Passage.
You will enjoy daily excursions to a land
where our guides will teach you about the regional flora and
fauna, as well as about the history of its first
inhabitants.
In fact, this will be one of the most
pleasant and unforgettable experiences, because Patagonia explored
via the Mare Australis will leave no one unimpressed.
