Falkland Islands

Saunders Island (Contains 35 photos) Home to four types of penguins and a large rookery of Black-browed Albatross; but perhaps best known for the Rockhopper Penguins who take a fresh water shower after emerging from the sea.	Carcass Island (Contains 16 photos) Named after the ship HMS Carcass, which surveyed the island in 1766. It is now home to the best cakes in the Falklands and a wide variety of wildlife set amongst stunning scenery.
West Point Island (Contains 16 photos) Home to a large colony of Black-browed Albatross, of which around 70% of the world population breed on the Falkland Islands.	Volunteer Point (Contains 16 photos) Home to the largest colony of King Penguins on the Falkland Islands
Bleaker Island (Contains 16 photos) Home to acrobatic Gentoo Penguins and probably my favourite of the outer islands that I have visited so far.	Sea Lion Island (Contains 35 photos) Home to the largest colony of Southern Elephant Seals on the Falkland Islands
Stanley - The Capital (Contains 8 photos) The administrative centre of the Falkland Islands
