Info from the web:
Beagle Channel is a strait 240 km (150 miles) long, running through the Tierra del Fuego archipelago at the southern tip of South America between Chile and Argentina and emptying into the Drake Passage, the gateway to Antarctica.
Tierra del Fuego is a place separated from the continent by a strait that joins the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans. It was discovered in 1520 by Ferdinand Magellan, a Portuguese at the service of the Spanish crown, who undertook the first voyage around the world. Even though he died before knowing it, he offered the first proof that the earth was round.
The southern limit of the island that separates it from the Fuegian channels and later from the Antarctic is established by the Beagle Channel, named after the ship Darwin Charles Darwin used to study this region, and to sail around the planet between 1831 and 1836.
