Getting There & Around
How to Get to Beaver Island, Falkland Islands
Access is by private boat or charter from larger Falkland Islands hubs such as Stanley or Fox Bay. Local operators offer inter-island transfers when weather permits; independent landings require prior permission from local landholders.
Tips for Visiting Beaver Island, Falkland Islands
- Arrange travel through Stanley or Fox Bay - inter-island flights and charters are infrequent and weather-dependent.
- Respect private property: many Falklands islands, including Beaver Island, are used for grazing and conservation; ask permission before landing.
- Bring sturdy, waterproof boots and a VHF or satellite phone if attempting an independent landing; tidal spits and surf can make landings tricky.
