Elephant Jason

About

Elephant Jason is one of the Jason Islands in the north west Falkland Islands. In Spanish, it is considered one of the "Islas las Llaves" (eastern, Seal Rocks and North Fur Island); such a distinction does not exist in English between the two groups of the islands. It is named for the southern elephant seals and the survey vessel HMS Jason.

The island has no airstrips, and is primarily reached by boat. The island is around 2.5 square kilometres, rockhopper penguins and black-browed albatrosses are found in significant numbers on the island.
