It took two sea days to reach the Falkland Island; although if you speaking with an Argentine, it is best to refer to them as the Isla Malvinas. The sea days allowed excellent to opportunities to observe and photograph (weather permitting) pelagic seabirds, which spend all of their non-breeding time out at sea. We were fortunate to be able to anchor at Stanley, as about 25% of the ships that visit the Falklands cannot land due to rough seas. Stanley is the capital of the of the Falklands. The Falklands have a total population of about 3000 most of whom live in Stanley. Stanley is on the southeastern point of the eastern main island. We joined a four-wheeler caravan to travel 50 miles to Volunteer Point on the northeast corner to view penguins. One and a half hours on asphalt and gravel roads and then an hour out across private range land - no roads and many many ruts and crevices to traverse. Two of the four vehicles in our group got stuck - that's how rugged the journey was. Extremely humpy, but worth it. We saw colonies of king, gentoo and Magellanic peguins. Volunteer Point is home to 1200 adult king penguins and several hundred chicks. It is the largest colony of king penguins outside of South Georgia Island. Volunteer Point is also the home to about 1000 gentoo penguins and several thousand Magellanic penguins. Highly protected, they are fearless of humans allowing close viewing and photography. Amazing nature experience, both the penguins and the expansive, barren landscape used for sheep and cattle ranching.
