SKORPIOS CRUISE - KAWESKAR ROUTE from US$2,839

Description

The adventure begins in Puerto Natales, where the journey ventures deep into the remote Patagonian fjords, sailing through the impressive Almirante Montt Gulf. Along winding channels and untouched landscapes, you’ll encounter remarkable wildlife in places like Caleta Juárez, home to colonies of elephant seals.

The voyage continues among majestic glaciers such as Guillard, Amalia, and the striking El Brujo, combining navigation, guided walks, and small-boat explorations through ancient ice in the Calvo Fjord.

One of the most memorable highlights takes place in the Fjord of the Mountains, where a close encounter with Bernal Glacier allows you to walk to the ice and connect with nature in its purest form. The journey concludes back in Puerto Natales, after an unforgettable experience in the heart of Patagonia.
