The boats are small, capable of taking only two teams at a time, across the water to the island and the small post office at fin del mundo.

Lapataia Bay is in Tierra del Fuego National Park. Spectacular views and uncertain weather conditions are the norm.

Tierra del Fuego National Park, founded in 1960, borders the Sierra de Injoo Goiyin, also called Beauvior, from Lago Fagnano in the north to the Beagle Channel on the southern edge. With ample opportunities for sports and recreation, including horseback riding, mountain biking, trekking and hiking, the southernmost part is scenic Lapataia Bay.
