During the 2024/25 cruise season, the Malvina Islands welcomed a total of 71,345 visitors, according to Steph Middleton, director of tourism for the illegitimate British government in the Argentine territory.
The figure was presented as a positive balance , although the loss of 18,000 reservations was reported due to adverse weather conditions and cancellations.
Middleton emphasized that, despite initial expectations of 10,000 fewer tourists than the previous season, the actual decrease was only 2,000 compared to the previous year. He described the situation as " good news," despite the cancellations .
According to a report published in the South Atlantic British colonialism weekly, "Penguin News," the islands' illegitimate administration plans to implement small solar-powered counters in high-traffic areas like Yorke Bay and Gypsy Cove to improve tourist tracking.
The media outlet for extracontinental invaders in the far south also noted that days with a large influx of tourists pose problems for residents of Stanley/Puerto Argentino, who have expressed concern.
During the 2024/25 season, there were only three days when more than 3,000 passengers disembarked, and one day reached more than 5,000.
The total population of the Malvina Islands is estimated to be approximately 3,600 people , while in the capital, Stanley/Puerto Argentino, the figure is closer to 2,700 , according to the latest census carried out in 2021 .
For the upcoming 2025/26 season, the illegitimate authorities of the region usurped by Anglo-Saxon colonialism are planning five days of arrivals with more than 3,000 tourists each, as well as one day that could receive up to 5,000 visitors.
Among the scheduled ships is the Celebrity Equinox, which has a capacity for 2,850 passengers , although the arrival of an expedition ship is also expected.
Regarding the quality of tourism on the islands, Middleton mentioned that the Tourism Board has been working on evaluating various accreditation systems. However, these efforts have not achieved the basic level necessary to obtain the "Travel Quality Seal of Approval."
The British, who usurped and militarized the Argentine archipelagos in the South Atlantic , thousands of kilometers from their nation and with a population established since the invasion in 1833 , continue to strengthen mass tourism and their projection of competition with the city of Ushuaia to establish leadership as the gateway to Antarctica.
