Last update: 10 hours agoPolar Travel & Falklands: Quark Expeditions has launched its Arctic 2028 and Antarctic 2028/29 seasons, with more than 70 departures and new add-ons including a Guided Photography Program (capped at 16), Expedition Extensions, a Northwest Passage voyage, and the return of “Tundra to Table” in partnership with Greenland’s Igapall—its Antarctic itineraries include the Falkland Islands. Local Sport & Community: The Falklands’ annual midwinter dip at Surf Bay drew a record number of swimmers, raising about £840 for local and cancer charities, with support including £1,500 from the Falkland Islands Company. Falklands in the Spotlight at UN: Islanders’ representatives have been speaking at the UN Committee of 24, defending self-determination and pressing for a visiting mission; separately, the UN Decolonisation committee has urged Argentina and the UK to resume sovereignty talks. Consultation Update: The Falkland Islands Government has confirmed salmon-farming consultation dates: public engagement starts 27 July, with documents published 29 June and an online survey running 6 August to 30 October. Fishing Watch: The illex squid season has closed, with catches down versus the ten-year average and fuel costs a concern, though officials say it’s not an immediate cause for alarm.
