Stanley is represented by five members of the Legislative Assembly of the Falkland Islands, currently Jan Cheek, Barry Elsby, Michael Poole, Gavin Short and Mike Summers.
Stanley is the main shopping centre on the islands and the hub of East Falkland's road network. Attractions include the Falkland Islands Museum, Government House – built in 1845 and home to the Governor of the Falkland Islands – and a golf course, as well as a whalebone arch, a totem pole, several war memorials and the shipwrecks in its harbour. The Falkland Islands Company owns several shops and a hotel. Stanley has four pubs, eleven hotels and guesthouses, three restaurants, a fish and chip shop and the main tourist office. There are three churches, including the Anglican Christ Church Cathedral, the southernmost Anglican cathedral in the world. A bomb disposal unit in the town is a legacy of the Falklands War.

We take a walk through Stanley, in the Falkland Islands. We also take a bus out to see the penguins. This was recorded in March 2023.
Susa and Masa visit Antarctica and Falkland Islands with MS Roald Amundsen ship in January 2020. Join us on the scenic tour to several places around Antarctic Peninsula. We have a video of all our landings in Antarctica: Cape Horn, Half Moon Island, Brown Bluff, Antarctic Sound, Astrolabe island, Wilhelmina Bay, Orne Harbour, Damoy Point, Deception Island and Elephant Island; as well as landings to Falkland Islands. The beauty of the landscape leaves us speechless and the humoristic penguins gave us many laughs.

'On This Day 1982: Falklands War - Inside Stanley After Argentine Defeat Forty years ago today, after two months of occupation by Argentine troops, the Falkland Islands capital Port Stanely was retaken by British forces. This unique aftermath footage was shot by ITN reporter Michael Nicholson and his crew, who had been embedded with the UK's Task Force since setting sail from Portsmouth in April 1982. Argentina still lays claim to 'Las Malvinas' but will the UK Government ever hand over the isolated and sparsely populated overseas territory after fighting a war to keep them? #FalklandsWar #Falklands40 🎥 Subscribe to our YouTube channel (tap the bell icon and stay up to date with all the latest On This Day videos!) - https://www.youtube.com/c/OnThisDayITNP 🎥 Follow us on Twitter - htt...

I assembled this video to show you what I saw and hopefully, I can make you feel, at least a little bit, the way I did when leaving the Falklands. And for those of you who might not know that much about the Falkland Islands, I also added a real brief history of the islands and a little bit about the Falklands War.
