    Le Lyrial sails through Beagle Channel towards Drake Passage. The channel (Spanish: Canal del Beagle; Yahgan: Onašaga) is a strait in the Tierra del Fuego Archipelago, on the extreme southern tip of South America between Chile and Argentina. The channel separates the larger main island of Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego from various smaller islands including the islands of Picton, Lennox and Nueva; Navarino; Hoste; Londonderry; and Stewart. The channel's eastern area forms part of the border between Chile and Argentina and the western area is entirely within Chile. It is 240 kms long and 5 kms at its narrowest point. The channel on north end connects Strait Magellan, and the south end opens to the Drake Passage (Ref: wikipedia).
    We watched the scenery while enjoying the first dinner onboard.
    星辉号沿比格尔海峡(西班牙语:Canal del Beagle;亚甘语:Onašaga)驶向德雷克海峡。比格尔海峡位于南美洲最南端、火地群岛上的一条海峡,介于智利和阿根廷之间。该海峡将较大的火地岛大岛(Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego)与多个小岛分隔开,包括皮克顿岛、伦诺克斯岛、努埃瓦岛、纳瓦里诺岛、霍斯特岛、伦敦德里岛以及斯图尔特岛等。海峡的东段构成了智利和阿根廷的部分边界,而西段则完全属于智利。
    海峡全长约 240 公里,最窄处约 5 公里。北端与麦哲伦海峡相连,南端通向德雷克海峡。(参考:维基百科)
