Carcass Island, 27-29 Nov 2022

Carcass Island has a slighlty off-putting name, and isn't as high profile as Sea Lion or Saunders. It does provide an authentic experience, since you stay at a working sheep farm, and I experienced the greatest joy of the entire 2 week trip here. The scenery is beautiful, and I so enjoyed photographing the Gentoos below on the white sand beaches. There's also an opportunity to talk to the far side of the island beyond the airstrip, to spend time with the elephant seals. The food was excellent, the owner and staff incredibly hospitable, and the accommodation comfortable.
