Stanley, also known as Port Stanley, is the capital of the Falkland Islands, which are part of the United Kingdom's territory. This small town has a population of 2,500 out of the 3,400 total residents in the islands, making the capital a relatively populous destination and extremely important in many ways. Some of the landmarks in Stanley include the Christ Church Cathedral, the 1982 Liberation Memorial Monument, the Falkland Islands National Museum, the National Trust, and the well-known whale bone arch. If exploring the city doesn't interest you, visit Gypsy Cove for scenic relaxation.The Falkland Islands also have plenty of wildlife just outside of Stanley, including elephant seals, five species of penguins, and numerous bird species. Contact our travel experts to start planning your trip to the Falkland Islands today!
