Stanley is the capital of the Falkland Islands, a small harbour settlement, recently given city status, that stretches along and above the shoreline of Stanley Harbour. Its main sights sit close together and are easily explored on foot: Christ Church Cathedral and the Whalebone Arch, Victory Green, the whalebone display, commemorative monuments and the Historic Dockyard Museum, which covers the islands' social and maritime history, flora, fauna and geology. Stanley has many cafes, bars, restaurants and pubs, and shops sell knitted and felted goods made from Falkland wool.
Outside town, the Cape Pembroke peninsula has white-sand beaches at Yorke Bay and Surf Bay, gentoo penguins, and Gypsy Cove, where Magellanic penguins return in summer. English is the official language.
