Falkland Islands Surrounded by the restless churning of the South Atlantic Ocean, pounding waves and billowing spray sculpt the shores of the Falkland Islands with an artistic flourish. This is nature's kingdom, where the husky cry of the sea lion, the quizzical gaze of the penguin and the unfamiliar companionship of the striated caracara are a reminder of who is in charge. |

Real
Travel - Falkland Islands
Despite their location off the coast of South America, the Falklands offer
travelers a distinctly British charm. Homes are a mishmash of local stone
and mortar, but most tourists come strictly for the wildlife penguins, seals,
gulls and sea lions. The abundance of animals means fishing is an excellent
activity to enjoy.
Lonely
Planet - Falkland Islands
Though it's neighbored by South America and Antarctica, the Falklands are
British through and through, with peat fires burning in every hearth and
teatimes to set your clock by. With only a scattering of inhabitants (half
of whom are British military personnel), it's hardly Touristville.
