Saunders Island is one of the larger off shore islands off West Falkland. It has a permanent population of seven .. so it's quite crowded by Falkland's standards! What the island has to offer is an abundance of wildlife from Penguins, Albatross to Minke Whales and a chance to really get away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

 South Georgia and South Sandwich are a dream and I should forget about it. The Falkland and Saunders island are also a dream but this one might become real ! Perhaps ! Inch Allah !
