Comments Went to Ushuaia for a cruise up the coast of Chile. So I went a day early and dived with Carlos at Ushuaia Divers. After dry suit intro, Carlos took 2 of us in an open RIB a few miles to some islands in the Drake Channel. Extremely cold trip despite the dry suits but a wonderful experience to see kelp and crabs in this unusual environment.
