The Neck

For the true wildlife lover, the cabin at The Neck offers the ideal viewing experience. Approximately a one-hour drive (10 miles) from the Saunders Island settlement, this refreshingly isolated cabin is rustic yet comfortable, making it the perfect place to escape from the pressures of urban life. The sound of waves rolling into shore will lull you to sleep, and you'll wake to see dawn breaking over the Falklands. Spend your days here exploring the wild landscape and reveling in the abundance of birdlife--Black-browed albatross, Gentoo, Rockhopper, and Magellanic penguins, King and Rock cormorants, and Black-necked swans, to name a few.

Accommodation is completely self-catering; travelers may purchase basic food supplies at the store in the settlement, or make advance arrangements for pre-prepared meals from Stanley.
