Tailor-made Falkland Islands
The Falkland Islands are a British archipelago in the South Atlantic Ocean. They consist of two main islands - East Falkland and West Falkland - and 776 smaller islands, many of which are unpopulated. They are famous for their amazing bird and marine mammal life, which is often easily approachable. There are six species of penguin here including king, gentoo, magellanic, rockhopper and macaroni. Tall tussac grass surrounds the beaches which are also home to elephant seal, sea lion and fur seal, and the islands are a birdwatcher's paradise with over 200 species including many large colonies of seabirds, the black-browed albatross and giant petrel. These remote, unspoilt and sparsely populated islands are heaven for nature lovers and photographers.
