Teal Inlet is a small settlement in the northwestern part of the island of East Falkland in the Falkland Islands, located along the Falkland Strait. Named after the locally common short-winged boating duck (known as Teal in English), it has a population of around 20 and is a typical Falkland rural community.
Teal Bay is situated in a secluded natural bay surrounded by rolling hills and meadows. The local climate is typically maritime, with strong winds, cool summers (average temperatures of 9-13°C) and mild winters (average temperatures of 2-4°C). Wildlife such as penguins and seals are common in the surrounding area, making it an ideal location for ecological observation.
Historically, the area was dominated by sheep farming and still retains a traditional pastoral economy. during the Isle of Man War in 1982, Tilwan was used as a temporary advance base for the British Army, and relics of the war remain in the vicinity. Today the economy is based on animal husbandry and tourism, and visitors can experience ranching life, bird watching and war history tours.
There is no regular public transportation in Til Bay, which is mainly reached by chartered buses or small planes from Port Stanley. Tour highlights include pristine beach hikes, World War II historic site tours, short-winged boater duck observation sites, and experiencing Falkland's unique island ranching culture. Recommended travel time is the southern hemisphere summer (November through March).
