Cape Virgenes
Capes in the Americas
Cape Virgenes (''Cabo Virgenes'', Cape Virgins) is the southeastern tip of continental Argentina. Ferdinand Magellan reached it on 21 October 1520 and discovered a strait, now called the Strait of Magellan. As 21 October was the feast day of Saint Ursula and the Eleven Thousand Virgins, he named the cape in their honor.
The Cape is located in Santa Cruz Province, Patagonia, Argentina. The Cape Virgenes Argentine Lighthouse has been operating since 1904. In 1884, gold was found there sparking the Tierra del Fuego Gold Rush.〔Martinic Beros, Mateo. ''Crónica de las Tierras del Canal Beagle''. 1973. Editorial Francisco de Aguirre S.A. Pp. 55-65〕 Recently, rises in the number of southern right whales visiting the area have been confirmed.〔The Fundación Cethus. 2014. (Realizamos nuestra 5° campaña en Cabo Vírgenes, Santa Cruz ).
