The Lagoon on our ranch, Bluff Cove, is home to 3,000 Gentoo Penguins, a growing colony of King Penguins, and an abundance of other spectacular wildlife on a beautiful wilderness beach only reached by our 4x4 vehicles. Home-baking and delicious local flavours are served with live music in the Sea Cabbage Café. The Museum tells the story of Bluff Cove. Our award winning tour is a fabulous combination of Falkland wildlife, heritage and hospitality.
Fabulous tour and experience! Friendly, knowledgeable guides on the minibus and 4x4 vehicles, lots of opportunities to see penguins up close, gorgeous scenery, lovely gift shop and cafe with homemade British tea and pastries. Not to be missed!

This maritime museum pays homage to the cultural history of the Falklands.
Wish we had more time to spend here because this is a really captivating museum. Loads or artifacts both inside and out. Much history to be learned here. Next time we'll make more time.

........very brief but well worth the time. Our guide explained the significance of this area to us and the role it played in the war. Very evocative.

A charming, restful garden (even in the constant winds of the Islands), Te Memorial Wood is dedicated to those who died that we my live in peace.

It is a relative short bus ride from downtown to Gypsy Cove for you to enjoy the sights. You will see a number of penguins as well a number of other birds, and sea life - if you travel in by Cruise ship, you will see your ship anchored in the bay as well. It is well worth the modest bus ticket cost to walk and see Gypsy Cove.

According to the Port Stanley Tourist Board, Christ Church is the most southerly Anglican cathedral in the world, and was consecrated in 1892 by the first Bishop of the Falkland Islands, Waite Hockin Stirling. This historic building features a cathedral tower with a ring of five bells, 19th and 20th-century stained glass windows and a two manual pipe organ built in Ireland. In addition, there are also locally-stitched needlepoint hassocks with scenes relating to the church and life on the Islands along with a collection of historic memorabilia. When open, you can visit at no charge, though a donation towards the maintenance of the building is highly recommended.

No visit to the Falkland Islands and its capital Stanley would be complete without visiting the 1982 memorial. Easy access and on the sea front pretty much in the centre of Stanley. Well maintained and a fitting memorial to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice in liberating these islands from illegal occupation in 1982.

The national museum of the Falklands! Celebrating the cultural heritage of the Falkland Islands, this large and modern museum complex is the one Stanley attraction that you will not want to miss. With five themed galleries (social, maritime and natural history, the 1982 war, Gateway to Antarctica) and several small outbuildings which includes the Smithy & Gearshed, the complex also features a speciality coffee and chocolate shop. All less than 5 minutes easy walk from the Jetty Visitors Centre/landing stage.
The Falklands tourist information office told us that one hour was enough to visit the museum but we could have spent a few hours. Lots of interesting stuffs about the history of the Falkland Islands: discovery and colonisation by the different European countries, whale hunting and natural history, current removing of the war mines and other anecdotes about the life style on the islands through the ages. A must see for people lucky enough to stay a few days on the islands.

This is a lovely bay with pole white sands we went for a paddle but you need to be very hardy to take the plunge in the south Atlantic

This is well worth a visit for the views and if you are very lucky you will see seals laying out in the long grass at the end passed the light house is one of the propers from The Atlantic Conveyor that was sunk on its way to the Falkland Conflict
