Itinéraire

Lady Elizabeth Shipwreck
On the way to Yorke Bay, travellers will see the Lady Elizabeth Shipwreck, a three-masted iron barque built in 1879 in Sunderland, England. Originally used to transport cargo around the world, the vessel later became part of the Falkland Islands’ maritime history. In 1913, she was towed to Stanley Harbour and used as a floating warehouse by the Falkland Islands Company.
In 1936, the ship broke free from her moorings during a storm and ran aground, where her remains can still be seen today. Over time, the structure deteriorated, leaving the skeletal hull that has become one of Stanley’s most recognizable landmarks and a reminder of the islands’ strong maritime past.

Gypsy Cove
At Gypsy Cove, travellers will see a sheltered bay with white sandy beaches, turquoise waters, and scenic coastal surroundings. The area is home to a seasonal Magellanic penguin colony, along with a variety of seabirds, making it a popular spot for wildlife viewing and photography. Visitors can enjoy a short walk to the viewing area and take in the peaceful natural setting.
Gypsy Cove also has historical significance, having been part of the Yorke Bay area during the 1982 Falklands Conflict, when it was heavily mined. The mines were later cleared, and the area has since been restored and protected for both wildlife and visitors.
