00:00this is not iceland it's not south africa and it's not new zealand either but it does have the
00:05wildlife those places are famous for with none of the crowds this is the falkland islands and most
00:09travelers will never think about going here but it's one of the most remote untouched wildlife
00:12destinations left on earth if you're wondering where they are the falklands are 300 miles off
00:16the coast of south america they're a little group of windswept islands in the south atlantic home to
00:20about 1 million penguins versus roughly 3,500 people that live across the whole archipelago
00:24if you care about wildlife remoteness and seeing the natural world the way it used to be you will
00:28love it here because nature is the main attraction most people get here on an expedition ship on
00:32route to antarctica or you could take a small flight from chile into the capital of stanley there you can
00:35book small local flights to do some island hopping where you can hike coastal cliffs where albatross
00:39nests in the wind experience uninhabited islands and share white sand beaches with thousands of
00:43penguins the landscapes here are wild and totally open there are no fences or boardwalks it's just
00:48you the wildlife and a lot of wind
