Stanley

Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas)

Stanley — also known as Port Stanley — is the modest capital city of the Falkland Islands, sitting on a north-facing waterfront slope on East Falkland. It holds the great majority of the islands' entire population, and offers a surprisingly active café and restaurant scene alongside several historic churches for a settlement of its size. Granted formal city status in 2022, it serves as the practical base for anyone exploring the wider archipelago.
