Paddling near Puerto Williams, Magallanes

Puerto Williams sits on Isla Navarino in the Magallanes region, facing the Beagle Channel at the southern edge of the inhabited world. The channel's crinkled coastline, sheltered bays, and proximity to Yaghan archaeological sites make sea kayaking the area's signature on-water activity, with sea lions, birds, and occasional dolphins and penguins encountered along the way.
