CRAB FISHING WITH LUNCH
The journey begins by leaving the city of Ushuaia, on a route of approximately 75 km towards Puerto Almanza. We traverse glacial valleys adorned with towering snow‑capped peaks, winding rivers, lagoons and peat bogs: a unique visual spectacle. We arrive at the home of local fishermen who will be our hosts for this authentic experience: they will guide us through the entire process, from preparation to the culmination of the king crab harvest. With the assistance of the experienced guides, we ready ourselves to embark in the boat and explore the local fish farms. During the roughly 15‑minute navigation, we will have the thrilling opportunity to haul the nets and collect our own king crabs, which will then be our lunch. Back at the cozy restaurant of our fisherman‑hosts, we will enjoy a delicious three‑course lunch: it begins with the “Beagle Dip”, followed by the exquisite king crab, and concluding with dessert. After this day at the “end of the world”, we begin our return to Ushuaia.
