Lying approximately 1.5 hours off-road from the Island Harbour House turn off, Kelp Point is one of the most diverse flora and fauna sites in the Falklands, offering access to 30+ bird species, southern elephant seals, gentoo and Magellanic penguins. Queen of Falklands Fritillary butterfly can be spotted on patches of Falkland Lavender, whilst Vanilla Daisies, Scurvy Grass, Fachine, and Christmas Bush are found right across the region. At nearby Pleasant Roads beach, visitors can fossick among whale bones and shells, or undertake some serious bird watching. Westward around the coast lies Whale Point where the wreck of the Saint Mary now rests – she was a 1,940 tonne vessel wrecked in August 1891 during her maiden voyage.
