Magdalena Island is a small island in the Patagonia region of Chile. The island is part National Park dedicated to preserving the indigenous wildlife on the island. You will see burrows built by penguins and other birds all around the island. Visitors may take a walk up the hill to the island's Lighthouse. It is a working lighthouse that guides ships on their way through the Strait of Magellan. Inside you will find some articles about its history. But by far the most impressive sight to visitors is viewing the thousands of bustling penguins and birds on the island and in the surrounding waters.
