Activities in Punta Arenas

  1. A

    Turismo Comapa

    If you have the time, a more atmospheric alternative to Seno Otway is the thriving Magellanic penguin colonies of Monumento Natural Los Pingüinos on Isla Magdalena. Five-hour tours on the Barcaza Melinka (adult/child CH$25,000) land for an hour at the island and depart the port on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, December through February. Confirm times in advance. Book tickets through Turismo Comapa and bring a picnic.

    Barcaza Melinka Tours

    Five-hour tours on the Barcaza Melinka land for an hour at the thriving Magellanic penguin colonies on Isla Magdalena. They depart from the port on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from December through February. Book tickets through Turismo Comapa at Magallanes 990 and bring a picnic - snacks on the ferry leave something to be desired.

  3. Ski Club Andino

    Ski Club Andino runs a quaint restaurant at the Reserva Forestal Magallanes chairlift and rents ski equipment. It is skiing - and therefore better than nothing - but not the kind of terrain that would warrant a specific ski trip to Punta Arenas.
