Puerto Williams is a port and naval base on Navarino Island and the capital of the Chilean Antarctic Province. Even with the small population of about 2800 it claims the title of the world’s southernmost city. Based on some definitions of what constitues a city, it could in fact be the southernmost city in the world. However, some dispute this because of the small settllement size and population in favor of Ushuaia or Punta Arenas. Since we had been to Ushuaia also, we can side step the dispute and claim we have visited the southernmost city in the world!
