Three hundred miles east of Argentina, the Falklands are a remote group of islands deep in the South Atlantic, a self-governing British Overseas Territory sadly synonymous with the 1982 conflict. Yet politics aside, the Falklands display a wild beauty which captivates nature lovers from far and wide. On land, rugged rolling hillsides provide the perfect conditions for sheep-farming and in spring are ablaze with wild flowers and sweet, endemic “diddle-dee” berries. Yet, it is the stunning wildlife mainly birds which has made the Falklands a key stop on the longer Antarctic cruises. Pristine, golden beaches teem with penguins, a remarkable 5 species in all – King, rockhopper, magellanic, gentoo and macaroni – as well as provide nesting sites for the largest population of black-browed albatross in the world. On East Falklands, the capital Stanley is an interesting and colourful town and provides access to both war memorials and rookeries alike.
All went very well to plan. We felt the impact of the number of flights to get to places – 7 in all – but that is obviously necessary in Myanmar and to get to both Myanmar and Cambodia (and we knew this). All guides and drivers were on time and excellent.
