- Falkland Islands ↗Entry rules are set by the Falkland Islands Government, not the UK: visitors typically need a return ticket, pre-booked accommodation and adequate insurance. Check the official rules for your passport.
- Falkland Islands ↗Keep your distance from penguins and seals, stay out of marked colonies, and follow landowners' rules: most land is privately owned farmland.
- Stanley and East Falkland ↗Off-road tracks beyond Stanley need a 4x4 and local knowledge: go with an operator, especially to Volunteer Point.
- Stanley ↗Mount Pleasant is 55 km from Stanley and there is no public bus: book the road transfer with your lodging before you fly, and give them your flight number.
- Stanley ↗Wind and cold hit even in summer: carry waterproof outer layers and a warm layer in your day bag, and plan indoor stops for rain.
