Explore the fascinating Valdés Peninsula! We head north to enter this unique nature reserve. We begin at the Ameghino Isthmus, from where you will contemplate the panoramic views of the Golfo Nuevo and San José, as well as the impressive Isla de los Pájaros.
Then, we continue to Punta Cantor and Caleta Valdés, located at the eastern end of the peninsula. Here you will have the opportunity to observe the remarkable cove from the coast, where, depending on the time of year, you can marvel at the colony of elephant seals, sea lions, Magellanic penguins and even, with a little luck, orcas.
In addition to this amazing marine life, during the tour you will also be able to spot a varied terrestrial fauna, such as guanacos, choiques, foxes, maras and a great diversity of sea birds.
