South America Cruises
Leg 2
Punta Arenas, Chile
Feb. 26, 2013
Description & Accessibility
Although the above link indicates a dock, our ship being a larger ship tendered at this port.
This was the last tender port of the cruise legs we where on.
Again because of middle managements decision to outright ban all motorized scooters or wheelchairs regardless of type or weight, I did not go ashore at this port but my wife did.
See the description regarding tenders on the article in…
cruise 1 ‘on the ship’ ‘on the carnival splendor’
Unlike Cabo San Lucas where a shore based tendering service was used, this tender port used ship based tender boats.
My wife took a tour to the Otway Penguin colony.
Although from what she tells me we saw more penguins on the excursion we both took in Ushuaia.
