Patagonia: Life at the Edge of the World

The Desert Coast

A journey along Patagonia's Atlantic coast where the land may be barren, but the sea is rich with life. In this wild and unforgiving place, killer whales risk it all to survive while huge male elephant seals battle for the chance to breed.

Fjordlands

The Far South

We venture to Patagonia’s far south, which is closer to Antarctica than anywhere else on Earth. This is a land of extremes where wind speeds soar above 100 miles per hour and giant waves batter the coastline. For those that can survive the elements, the potential riches are great.

Forests

Patagonia's ancient woodlands are a magical home to creatures found nowhere else on Earth. This journey explores forests that time forgot, revealing hidden treasures, while meeting scientists and indigenous people working to protect them.
