I Live in Orkney and have a friend from the Falklands. This video makes me want to visit there, as it reminds me of how we used to be.

Similar latitude to northern England, but due to the strong westerly airflow around Antarctica, the climate is colder, similar from stats I've seen to say the Shetlands, to the north of Scotland. A typical Summer's day in Stanley averages 14-16 deg C, Winter about 4-6 deg C. Both island groups are windswept and treeless.

I find is astonishing just how similar the Falklands are to the west coast of Scotland. Apart from the colourful tin roofs, the penguins and the sea lions there would be no way of telling them apart. The climate and clouds, the gorse, the sheep, the colour of the grass and silver sand, the type of rock, the heather and peat (I didn’t even know peat existed outside of Scotland!), the what we would call “lochans” basically small ponds in the peat, the cold, deep blue of the water and the white foam when it crashes over the yellow lichen covered coastline, the empty sandy beaches and dunes, the species of seaweed, the old land rovers bumping over tiny moorland tracks, and even the windswept fences crisscrossing the landscape. Fascinating.

Loved the footage, I lived their for 7 years. What makes the place so special is what is not there as much as what is.

@Juan Ignacio Davidson you have some tourist attractions. Just be ready to do some driving around. Penguins, elephant seals big birds of prey. The battlefield tours. Ship wrecks. Certainly worth a visit.

You’re right they are very special. I was fortunate enough to be deployed to the Falklands on three occasions between 1990 and 2007 whilst in the British Forces. Fantastic memories, I do hope Roddy and Lilly are well as I recalled staying with them for one night as I was met the following morning by one of the first cruise ships, the Enterprise as I recall. I sat on the beach after Roddy made me breakfast and was joined by the Carracarra whilst I waited to be picked up by a small craft before boarding the cruise ship and over night making our way to Stanley - amazing place with people I still call friends. Thank you for sharing. 👌

Visited the Faklklands in 2015. This is a most excellent and beautiful documentary! Of all the places, it's the small homes with baby lambs kept in the yard (for bottle feeding) and the farm kitchens and cozy pubs. At one of these in Stanley, I asked the barman some history questions; he suggested I go ask one of the patrons and I introduced myself and was invited by the elder patron to join him for lunch. He was Governor Rex Hunt's driver when the invasion of 1982 occurred. I listened to his story, but the 1982 conflict was the least of his memories: he sailed for years in a trawler protecting transatlantic convoys during WW2. As understated as the Islands themselves.The people and the wildlife of the Falklands are beautiful: no desire but to live where they live in harmony with all. Don't miss the accurate to scale model of the solar system which extends many hundreds of meters along a trail by the shipwreck bay, with a sun the size of a huge beachball and an earth the size of a small marble!

I visited the Falklands in 1986 as a serving member of the british army. Stationed at Mount Pleasant, I had a very special time there or my 104 day tour. I visited Sea Lion Island, and stayed on Saunders Island. my daily trip from camp was to Mare harbour where I fished, walked and even took a skinny dip in the ocean from Bertha's beach. While I was out for a run I noticed a pod of Commerson's dolphins following me in the surf! I dived into the surf and the dolphins swam away. It was one of my coldest swims I can remember. It was a surreal experience being there after the war working and but also having lots of free time to explore the Islands. Thank you for your video, It brought back fond memories of my time there all those years ago.
