Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
A dive trip does not have a confirmed single Beagle Channel marine-park tag or visitor tourism levy in the reviewed official material. Pay the actual dive product, any operator-specific launch/insurance charges, and relevant passenger-port charges if required. Tierra del Fuego National Park has a separate national-park entry ticket for land visits, not for all Beagle Channel dives. Prices and applicability must be reconfirmed with the boat and park before travel. Never treat an illustrative fare as a guaranteed checkout price.
| Fee | Amount | Applies to | Where to pay | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tierra del Fuego National Park daily entry: general visitor | ARS 40,000 Daily admission; tariff effective 2026-06-01 | Topside visitors entering Tierra del Fuego National Park, not routine Beagle dive outings | Official Administracion de Parques Nacionales ticket portal or authorized park access point | APN also lists ARS 18,000 for Argentine national residents, ARS 8,000 for provincial residents and ARS 12,000 for eligible students, with documented exemptions. Check current tariffs, category and trail conditions. |
| Tourist port passenger charge: published operator example | ARS 6,000 per person (Canoero published from 2026-10-01) Per applicable cruise departure; verify present tariff and inclusion | Some tourist-port passenger-boat excursions; not automatically Club AFASYN scuba departures | Via the relevant Beagle navigation operator, if applicable | Canoero now consistently lists ARS 6,000, but the page says both that its fares include the port charge and that the charge is added to fares. Ask whether the levy is included or additional, and whether the booked vessel departs from that port. |
| Scuba/snorkel excursion and insurance add-ons | Variable, operator quote required Per booked outing | Participants in guided cold-water activities | Confirmed local dive/snorkel operator or agency | A third-party 2026 introductory dive advertises starting at ARS 262,000 with insurance separate. This is not a market-wide price or proof of current space. Confirm all equipment, medical screening, port dues, cancellation and personal dive insurance. |
| Dive sites, vessel clearance and marine-park tag | No uniform guest tag or amount verified Site and vessel dependent | Prospective scuba or apnea activities in Argentine Beagle waters | Ask the duly authorized local operator and Prefectura if a location requires clearance | Prefectura publishes authorized nautical zones and registration requirements. The reviewed evidence does not establish a channel-wide visitor marine-park fee or authorize independent wreck/island entry. Do not pay a claimed tag without checking the issuing authority. |
| General tourist or lodging levy | No Ushuaia-wide visitor levy amount verified Unknown; check your booking invoice | Visitor lodging or tourism, only if a lawful applicable levy is separately confirmed | Not established by the reviewed sources | Do not confuse a national-park ticket or port boarding charge with a universal tourism tax. The absence of a verified levy here does not prove no operator or municipality can charge one. |
