I'm confused. Wouldn't the "end of the world" be Cape Horn? That's the Chilean Island that mariners use as a guidepost to know when to finally turn north after traveling south to go around the tip of South America. When you "round the Cape" you know that the weather should get better.

I know that there's only a Chilean Coast Guard lighthouse, but the Cape is famous enough to support a small industry of hardy tourists and mariners who want to brag about it, and the Coast Guard people will give proof of the visit, including post cards.
