Overview

Travel Destinations of South Georgia.

South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands is a British Overseas Territory in the southern Atlantic Ocean. It is quite inhospitable due to tough weather conditions: very few people live here. South Georgia has a nickname "Galapagos of the Arctics", thanks to the abundance of wildlife. You'll find millions of penguins and plenty of sea mammals.

The Falkland Islands, South Georgia, South Orkney Islands and South Shetland Islands are all claimed by (far-away) Great Britain and (nearby) Argentina.
