If you’ve ever wanted to travel to the end of the world, you’re in luck. Located at the southernmost end of South America, Ushuaia is literally a city on a hilltop and a famous Argentine resort town. Getting here on a South America cruise is an adventure in and of itself, as Ushuaia is often called a doorway to Antarctica.
Ushuaia is an important port city and the capital of the Tierra del Fuego province of Argentina. The town boasts incredible natural beauty through its national parks like the Tierra del Fuego National Park with cultural institutions like the Museo del Fin del Mundo, or the End of the World Museum. Skiing, boating among snow-capped mountain vistas, and hiking are some of the most popular Ushuaia excursions. While stopped on your Ushuaia cruise, catch views of both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans from Beagle Channel. Animal lovers can’t miss a stop at Gable Island and Port Williams Navy Base, where you spot penguins and sea lions in their natural colonies.
