Peninsula Mitre
The Forgotten Land
The brothers Gauchos del Mar They embark on an unprecedented expedition on foot with 35kgs in their backpacks, for 53 days along the easternmost tip of Tierra del Fuego, a virgin area where no one lives. Their goal is to surf a world-class wave at the Cabo San Diego Lighthouse, the easternmost point.
To get there they have to overcome very harsh terrain, food shortages and a hostile climate. Without communication, they document the region to share their environmental message, leaving consumerism aside and bringing us closer to a simple way of living to protect the Mitre Peninsula forever!

GET INVOLVED
We went out in search of waves and found a cause: Protect the Mitre Peninsula forever.
Nowadays there are fewer and fewer unspoiled places left in the world.
The film helped to visualize a little-known place and with the joint work of NGOs and local politicians, plus the petition we promoted, 300.000 hectares of land and 200.000 hectares of sea were conserved forever.
Today the Mitre Peninsula is a Protected Natural Area.
