El Che Turismo Alternativo is a family-run business, run by its owners, that offers one of the most authentic and intimate experiences for sailing the Beagle Channel in small boats from Ushuaia.

With daily departures in small groups of up to 10 people, we sail through the Beagle Channel, very close to sea lion colonies, seabirds, and the iconic Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse. During the excursion, we take part in a mini-trek on Bridges Island, where we share stories about the local flora, the natural environment, and the Yámana people who inhabited these shores.

Thanks to the small size of our vessels, the wildlife experience is closer, more respectful, and free of interference, allowing you to observe animals in their natural environment without disturbing them.

Penguins are visible from the water (no landing required), and humpback whale watching is possible between February and June, subject to conditions and wildlife presence.

We conclude with a snack or toast on board, always with personalized attention, warmth, and respect for the environment.
