3 Days Kayak Cape Froward
Cape Froward
Overview
In this excursion we will explore a very wild area that due to its remoteness and hard conditions only brave sailors use to sail. We will navigate until we reach the most southern point of land in the American continent and we will be in very similar conditions as Hernando de Magallanes or Sir Thomas Cavendish the corsair who named the place "Cape Froward".
