Before you go
What the guide flags for families.
- Stanley is a good, small place with children: safe streets, penguins within 15 minutes by taxi and a museum with whale bones. (Kids)
- Weather is the challenge: a 15 C day can feel like 5 C in the wind, so pack layers, hats and gloves in every season. (Kids)
- Gypsy Cove is the best family outing: flat, free and lively. Keep children from the fences and beach edge. (Kids)
