Falkland Islands, South America travel resource.
Swarming with subantarctic wildlife, ranging from tiny tussac birds to penguins and gigantic marine mammals, the beaches, headlands and rolling moorlands of the Falkland Islands are reminiscent of northern Scotland. The islands are increasingly prosperous thanks to a thriving squid fishery and seem far removed from the 1982 conflict between Britain and Argentina that dramatically ended their quiet isolation. Also, with improved communications, growing numbers of cruise-ship passengers and independent travelers are making their way to a scenic archipelago whose population of kelpers (as natives of the Falkland Islands are known) is more than ready to greet them.
